Gail Donoghue had asked:
> In honor of the Year of Physics (10/04 - 2/06),...
An odd name for a sixteen-month period.
> I want to develop/buy an Einstein exhibit and related programming.
You can contact Nancy Lynn ([log in to unmask]) here at the American Museum
of Natural History, if you want more information about the exhibit we
developed.
> The materials/programs need to be appropriate for grades 4-8. Does
> anyone have any information.
General info on the exhibit:
http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/einstein/index.php
But you might want to take a close look at the "Einstein for Educators"
link at the bottom of that page:
http://www.amnh.org/education/resources/exhibitions/einstein/index.php
Lots of materials developed in-house, as well as links to outside
resources.
Also, I co-taught a class, "From Einstein to Hawking," which has a few
adult resources online:
http://research.amnh.org/~wyatt/Hayden/fromEtoH.html
Not as glitzy as the other Einstein materials, but perhaps including
worthwhile nuggets for background info.
