Discovery Guides
Discovery Guides are printable activity sheets that teachers can bring to enhance their students’ self-guided field trip experience at The Neon Museum. These guides support learning by encouraging students to observe, explore, and engage with the museum’s collection through questions and hands-on activities.
To ensure students can fully participate, please provide a pencil and a clipboard or other hard writing surface for each student. If you are unable to provide these materials, please let us know in advance and we will do our best to accommodate your group.
Printing Instructions:
Download and print the guides double-sided. When printing, select “Flip on Short Edge” to ensure the pages orient correctly.
