Project Title
The Seed of Texas Teacher Workshops and Walking Tours
Project Summary
Jessica Nowlin will organize workshops and walking tours for 4th- and 7th- grade social studies teachers in Bexar County, Texas, to familiarize them with rich historical materials available via The Seed of Texas project. The Seed of Texas, a collaboration between the University of Texas at San Antonio, Bexar County’s Heritage and Parks Department, and local historians, makes primary source documents related to the region, especially historic maps, available to the public. These workshops and walking tours will be a new part of the ongoing work to build enthusiasm for and deep knowledge of local history.
