Las Vegas Neon: The Growth & Glamour of a 20th Century American City History/Grade 4 Unit Plan
Click here for the Neon Museum’s standards based 4th grade history unit plan that provides teachers with historical background, context, and activities for students. Comprised of lessons that span the history of Las Vegas from 1905 to the 1960s, as told through historic signs from our collection, components of the unit can be implemented as separate lessons, and may be easily scaled up or down in complexity. The plan was developed to celebrate Nevada’s Sesquicentennial and includes educator resources, links, and a select bibliography.
