Four Japan artifact trunks are available to educators for a one-week rental. Each trunk contains between 30 and 100 articles that enable students to gain a first-hand experience of Japanese culture. The trunks come with a set of recommended teaching ideas to help students analyze, hypothesize, compare, and contrast Japanese/American life. The trunk themes include:

  • Traditional Clothing
  • Elementary School Life
  • Children at Play

"The Pacific War" is an additional trunk suitable for secondary-level history instruction.
