This section includes a brief introduction about what the Castle Air Museum is, and some fun facts about the Museum.
One page is dedicated to B-Gen. Frederick W. Castle. Castle Air Force Base was named in honor of his meritorious military career during World War II and now the Castle Air Museum carries on the honor.
This section concludes with a map of the Museum grounds with the locations of all the aircraft on outdoor display and a numbered index with descriptions of each aircraft.
This section is one of the workbook portions. Here you will find questions that are taken from the Museum's Brochure and Information Sheets.
There is a list of words that can be used for spelling practice and suggested assignments to use the words for.
There are two word search puzzles, and a Glossary of Aviation Terms.
Don't worry about the answers, they are all at the end of the section.
This section uses aircraft statistics from nine of the aircraft on display at the Museum to practice math skills.
The problems use subtraction, multiplication, addition and division skills in a fun and interesting way.
