The Museum of Slavic Literature “Slovo” has joined the “Study Day at the Museum” project

The “Study Day at the Museum” project is an urban educational project that assumes that students of secondary educational institutions master subject knowledge in museums and libraries of the capital, for example, physics and chemistry – at the Museum of Cosmonautics, history – at the Polytechnic Museum, mathematics – at the State sports museum. In total, several dozen Moscow museums are participating in the project.

And so the Slovo Museum of Slavic Literature joined the project. In it, schoolchildren will get acquainted with topics on literature, the world around them and the Russian language. For this, the originals of the first textbooks, which were written in Cyrillic, will be used, with the accuracy of a recreated Orthodox church of the 10th-11th centuries, and the printing press of Ivan Fedorov. At literature lessons, children will listen to epics, fairy tales, ditties and Russian folk songs, and then analyze them with teachers. Also, using the exhibits of the museum, schoolchildren will be able to collect interesting facts about the creators of the Slavic alphabet Cyril and Methodius, as well as get acquainted with the monuments of ancient Russian writing.

Help “MP”
The “Study Day at the Museum” project was created in 2017 by two metropolitan departments — the Department of Education and Science and the Department of Culture. Classes within the framework of this project help teachers to deepen the knowledge of schoolchildren in various subjects. Any metropolitan school can sign up for lessons in Moscow museums for the project.
