MAINE STATE MUSEUM by Juliet

I learned many thing at the Maine State Museum. I learned that there are many gems that you can find in Maine. I also learned how to load a Flint Lock Musket. My favorite section was Back to Nature which has fake animals like deer, skunks, bears, bobcats, and even real live trout! 


My favorite activity was making arrow heads. We used rock and shaped the rock with real deer and moose antlers.It was hard but it came out great. We also made rubbings of some petroglyphs that the Natives made. Petroglyphs are drawings on rocks. We learned how and why people used to harvest ice. The Maine State Museum is awesome!
