VISIT MUSEUM FOR LECTURES
Doris Lynn Has Difficulty Remembering Names Of Children.
By EARL HOFF
Miss Doris Lynn will never be able to learn all the names of her pupils. They change every day. She is a docent, the first one ever hired by the Indianapolis School Board to co-ordinate grade school social studies with the material available at the Children’s Museum, 1150 N. Meridian St. Miss Lynn's title means that she is a lecturer. Every morning she speaks to at least two groups of very wide-eyed youngsters at the museum. Gets Their Attention
If they're third graders, she is talking about Indian Life. The] fourth graders, hear ahout Switz- | erland. The fifth and sixth graders are learning about China and Japan. | And Miss Lynn gets all the at-| tention of the children. Afterwards, they ask her questions and she says | they're “the most intelligent ques- | tions I ever heard children ask.” i To illustrate her talks, she uses! a picture projector and afterwards | takes the youngsters on a Sot eoar of the displays in the museum that! tie in with her talk. They always leave very much impressed. The subjects change every six weeks to coincide with the school curriculum. During the first period of this semester, the sixth graders] learned about China, the third grad-! ers about desert life and the fourth graders about early mankind.
Go To Museum On Bus The way things work out, grade school pupils first study a subject in class. Then their teacher arranges a visit by bus to the museum. Miss Lynn's talk and the trip through the museum exhibits makes the lessons “soak in.” Before she came to the Children’s Museum, Miss Lynn taught for five years in School 57 in Irvington. Previous to that. she taught in Chicago. She is a graduate of Butler University. Always interested in travel, Miss Lynn says she is “having the time of my life” in the Museum surrounded by items from nearly every country in the world. : They bring back to her memories of her own travels in South America and Europe.
