Living Dinosaurs

The Breakout EDU game designed for grades 1-3, shows kids the amazing animals that have survived since the times of the dinosaurs.  These living dinosaurs have great meaning for the Menominee people and this game helps to demonstrate this importance and the ability of these animals to survive for so long.

Welcome Home

The kids are ready to join the sturgeon on their journey home and help them to take the last steps on their way home.  Welcome Home is designed for upper elementary, grades 4-5 and its story surrounds a common Menominee practice of helping sturgeon to the water ways of their home.  This practice is done in part due to dams that have altered or stopped the sturgeon's regular route.
