Dear Educators:
Thank you very much for deciding to embark on an educational adventure with your students. Soon you
will be visiting the Carlsbad Historical Society and Museum located within Magee Park. Please explore
our website (www.carlsbadhistoricalsociety.com) to preview some of the content that you and your
students will see when you visit.
The curriculum that the Carlsbad Historical Society and Museum has designed for your field trip is
intended to not only actively engage students in the learning process and promote local history, but it has
also been designed to address many of the rigorous California State Standards for Social Studies
Curriculum. As part of our third grade curriculum, the Carlsbad Historical Society intends to address the
following standards throughout your visit;
3.3 Students draw from historical and community resources to organize the sequence of local
historical events and describe how each period of settlement left its mark on the land.
1. Research the explorers who visited here, the newcomers who settled here, and the
people who continue to come to the region, including their cultural and religious traditions
and contributions.
2. Describe the economies established by settlers and their influence on the present-day
economy, with emphasis on the importance of private property and entrepreneurship.
3. Trace why their community was established, how individuals and families contributed
to its founding and development, and how the community has changed over time, drawing
on maps, photographs, oral histories, letters, newspapers, and other primary sources.
We encourage all educators to browse the accompanying educational materials in an effort to prepare
students for their visit. We also encourage educators to adapt any materials to meet the needs of your
students. In addition, the students will be provided with educational material upon their arrival to ensure
engagement with all aspects of the tour. Any materials not completed during the tour can be used as
excellent post-visit activities.
If you have any questions or special requests or needs, please do not hesitate to contact us.
We look forward to your visit.
※ ※ TEACHERS AND CHAPERONES ※ ※
Please read this important information about behavior
at the Carlsbad Historical Society and Museum
The Carlsbad Historical Society (CHS) and Museum is excited to have your students visit St. Michael’s
Church, the Shipley-Magee Historic House, and surrounding area. Due to the relative small nature of the
historic home and grounds, at times it may get crowded. In addition to this, the CHS houses many
unique and culturally significant artifacts that are a vital part of our local community. Students are asked
to be on their best behavior.
It is our goal to provide not only a safe learning environment for your students, but to also ensure that
they have fun while visiting. Prior to your arrival please help us in reminding students as to the proper
behavior when touring the CHS and remind them of the following before their arrival:
HAVE FUN!
NO running
NO candy, gum, food, or drinks
Please refrain from touching artifacts unless otherwise instructed
Please keep all hands and feet to yourselves
Do your best to have on your listening ears while presentations are going
Questions are encouraged! Please make sure to raise your hand and try to keep all questions and
comments on topic and appropriate.
o Please feel free to take photographs. However, we ask that photography be conducted in a safe
and responsible manner. Due to the numerous artifacts and tight spaces we ask all photos be
taken from a stationary position in order to ensure the safety of all visitors.

Directions
1. Read the following instructional paragraph to your class.
Today you visited the Carlsbad Historical Society and Museum where you toured the ShipleyMagee historic home. Inside the home you had the opportunity to view what is called a “Crazy
Quilt”. To remind you, a “Crazy Quilt” was made using different pieces of fabric from clothing
worn at different occasions. These quilts served as a way to remember important events and
memories in someone’s life. Here is a photograph of a “Crazy Quilt” (Show accompanying
photograph). Today you are going to have the opportunity to make your own “Crazy Quilt” out of
the materials I have provided to show memories that are important to you. Some ideas of what you
could include on your “Crazy Quilt” could be memories about holidays, vacations, pets, sports, or
any other activity or occasion that is special to you.
2. Pass out material.
3. Allow students to construct their own crazy quilt.
