Educator and school programs at Battleship Cove.

New England's Largest Floating Classroom

Sometimes teachers need help getting students excited about their subject matter, and Battleship Cove is here to help you do that.

Having trouble getting high school seniors excited about physics? Show them how 18-year-old sailors used those principles to accurately fire 2300 lb shells at targets beyond the horizon. Are you teaching a unit on Japanese culture? Explore thousands of Japanese artifacts collected by PT boaters during WWII. Are you covering the Space Program? Stand on the deck of the USS Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr., which assisted the space capsule recovery teams during the Gemini Program.

There's no end to the clever connections you can make. Contact our education department to learn how to make your curriculum come alive at Battleship Cove.
