Student Educational Programs
of Colonial Williamsburg
Highlights I Colonial Williamsburg’s school group tours have been redesigned to better address state
and national standards in history and social studies. Our school group tours are led by professional
tour guides we’ve trained to interpret the Historic Area for children of all ages. Guides present ageappropriate
history of the years between 1700 and 1781 and lead groups through public buildings,
colonial homes and trade shops while discussing daily life in the 1700s. The tour guide highlights
information related to the National Social Studies Standards for government, citizenship and colonial
life in a British colony, and students will visit sites and engage in hands-on activities that bring those
standards to life. Pre- and post-visit teaching materials are available for educators at www.history.org.
