This week a fabulous group of teachers from Region 14 visited us for our "Art of Reading" In-Service. This workshop, for PreK-2nd grade teachers, connects children's literature with visual art from the museum collection. Teachers investigate collection objects and discuss, enjoy books and videos and create samples of the coordinating art projects they will lead with their students this year. It is a GREAT time to share stories and ideas, as well as to explore new books and activities as we gear up for the Fall Semester!
