Flint Hills Lesson Plans

Free Teaching Resources for K Through 12 Classrooms

At the Flint Hills Learning Center, we have developed a collection of free, fully-developed formal lesson plans to teach a variety of topics related to the Flint Hills.

Many of the plans include curriculum standards/benchmarks, detailed activity descriptions, time parameters, materials needed, prepared teaching documents including activity sheets/handouts, assessment information, and more. Some of the lesson plans are developed specifically for use with the Flint Hills Map Exhibits, while others teach broader Flint Hills topics.

Thank You to Our Collaborators

This collection is made possible through the collaboration and resource-sharing of educators throughout the region. We appreciate their efforts to inspire and deepen learning of the Flint Hills.
