Chicago: City of Possibilities, Plans, Progress provides materials that offer a starting point to making the city itself part of your curriculum. As your students explore their city we hope that they will understand their own ability to change their communities and make a different in shaping Chicago's future.
We encourage you to take full advantage of Chicago's museums, libraries and education organizations, as well as extensive on-line resources as part of the learning experience. And finally, we hope that the Centennial's primary goal -- to make our region one of the world's best places to live and work -- will enrich and inform your teaching well into the future.
