The Ice Age Virtual Tour

 By: Erica Moore

​The Smithsonian Museum put up an online virtual tour for students to get the opportunity to tour the museum at home. I think this is important because it gives people a fun and interactive activity while they are staying safe in their homes. Students have the ability to choose between hundreds of exhibits to tour. I chose to tour the Ice Age Extinction exhibit. I chose this exhibit, because I’m very interested in the subject. First, I went to the Ice Age Extinction 1. Here I got to see the extinction wall that had all the animals that have been extinct for several years. On the screen, students can hit different arrows to view up, down, left, and right. After leaving the ice age extinction I went to the next room and got to see a mammoth duplicate. It’s was really amazing to be able to see these images.
