Longfellow National Historic Site
Plan A Field Trip
 

Longfellow National Historic site - with its vast collection of historic artifacts and family papers - is an exciting setting for learning about 19th century history and poetry.  Ranger guided school programs are developed in collaboration with classroom teachers and align with Massachusetts learning standards.

Programs include pre-visit materials to prepare students for their visit, and post-visit activities that allow students to express how their understanding has changed as a result of their experience.
