Welcome Teachers!

Welcome to L is for Lansing, a resource for students, teachers, and historians who want to know more about the history of Lansing, Michigan. This project was developed by the Young Spartan Program, a partnership which includes staff from nine Lansing elementary schools, Michigan State University, and Impression 5 Science Center, and many others.

Contained within this section of the website are lesson plans for teachers to use as supplements to their class work. There are teacher guides for the elementary grades, which will tell you the parts of L is for Lansing which correspond to various objectives in the Lansing School District's K-1 curriculum, and Pacing Guides for Instruction for grades 2-5. There is also a place for teachers to correspond on a Bulletin Board set up to support your efforts in staying connected

We hope that as this project evolves in the future, interested teachers and others will contribute lesson plans relating to topics related to Lansing, links to additional relevant sites, and other resources for teachers.
