    Whether it’s the Iowa history unit or just time to brush your students up on notable Iowans, the Hall of Heroes is an excellent resource.

    NEW lesson –“Heroes vs. Celebrities”

    “Heroes vs. Celebrities” will help introduce your students to many notable Iowans and also help them differentiate between a hero and a celebrity.

    Below is a list of the 30 Iowans previewed within this highly interactive exhibit. You may want to assign every student a different Iowan to research, whether it’s before their visit to the Iowa Hall of Pride or while they are here.
