Do you remember the museum field trips you went on when you were in school?  Our museum educators work with teachers to create engaging activities and programs.  Please help spread the word about our next professional development workshop for teachers on Saturday, January 28 from 10:00am to 1:00pm!  Designed for classroom teachers, these sessions bring the museum collection to life for use in the classroom. Educational materials and refreshments are provided at each session.


Teaching Writing Through Art
Ocean Park, No. 6
Date: Saturday, January 28, 2012
Time: 10:00a.m.-1:00p.m.
Cost: $10

Art is a natural prompt for writing: it provides visual learners with inspiration, struggling writers with a subject, and all students with an opportunity for reflection and personal connections. In this workshop, teachers will participate in a variety of writing activities in the gallery, from short poetry exercises to in-depth analysis via podcast, which they can adapt to their own classroom needs.

Hope to see you there,
