1. We will be starting from the double helix staircase. This is the staircase that people use to go up and down the statue of liberty. This stainless steel version replaced iron n 1984. Students will be shown on the upper platform. This is made of iron rods that fasten 300 and more sheets to keep the statue secure. This lower platform is actually the statue's gown and can be seen when going up the stairs. You can actually see the gown mold from looking closely into the lower platform. (students will be given additional facts) (8-10) 2. Here we have the pedestal lobby. Since 1986 visitors always entered the Statue pedestal through this lobby which was renovated in 1980. Students will next be shown the ferry dock. This is where visitors arrived on Liberty Island which used to be called Bedloe's Island. Its sculpture was built by Fredric Augusta. It is a symbol of friendship between France and the United States. (8-9 minutes) 3. Students will be shown in the information center. This is managed by the U.S lighthouse and U.S War department. By the 20th century, this statue welcomed many immigrants into New York Harbor. Next, we have the Flagpole Plaza. The statue's iron covering is about 3/32 inches thick which is basically two pennies together. A French engineer Gustave created this. He had a good reputation for building other things like the Eifel tower and Railway bridges. (8-10 minutes) 4. Here is the main mall. The walls you see concave between the statue were created to elevate the pedestal. The architect did this so the top has even more of a taller illusion. Here we see the centennial doors as we get closer. Students will be provided more details about the doors. They're bronze doors that once provided accesses the original wall of Fort wood into the lobby we saw in the beginning. Cool huh? Here we see the staircase in which we can see the observation deck. (8-10 minutes) 5. In the end, students will play a jeopardy game in which they will guess the correct part of the Statue of Liberty.
