I love the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's downloadable lesson
plans, incorporating music, social studies and history.  And the Mariners
Museum in Newport News has extensive, interpretive educational materials.
I'm not sure of the URLs but you can link to them through the MUSEE
directory at www.musee-online.org.
