Touching The Past
| Collocated at Fort Lee, the U.S. Army Women's Museum and U.S. Army Quartermaster Museum offer complementary programs which support and enhance the Virginia Standards of Learning for History/Social Studies, English and Visual Arts. Your visit includes a one hour program in each museum. Your students become history investigators as they use primary sources from our collections and archives to learn about people and events in the past. |  |

The program WhatIZIt? will help students develop critical thinking skills by analyzing artifacts to determine what they might have been used for, who might have used them and how they would have been used. It includes an exercise that develops skills for narrative, expository and informational writings. |
| What's in a Kodak™ Moment? challenges students to compare and contrast, make connections between past and present, determine cause and effect, make inferences and generalizations and draw conclusions based on visual primary evidence from the museum's archives. |  |
