ART

In this section, teachers and students will find on-line learning resources in visual arts. Explore how artifacts from a 2000 year-old tomb of the Egyptian Prince Tutankomen connect modern cultures to ancient ones through art objects deemed important in representing the entombed Prince. Learn how self-taught artists express their imaginations on canvas using unconventional techniques. See the art in the leaves of plants or trees and in other realms of the natural world.

Modules for teacher to learn the content that they can readily integrate into their curriculums have been designed to provide high-quality professional development. Lesson plans with age-appropriate activities with content standards and student outcomes aligned with 21st century learning have been designed for teaching students. Once students have been engaged by classroom learning, they will be ready to participate in a virtual field trip presented by an arts professional who will interact with students about their experiences. Pre- and post-tests have been included to measure student learning along with extended lesson plans for continued arts learning in classrooms.

The resources section provides ideas for incorporating arts in classrooms, sources for supplies and books, materials for curriculum integration, on-line sources, bibliographies, and references in arts education and technology applications in learning.

Below is a list of Virtual Field Trip modules falling under the category of Art:

Huntington Museum of Art: Folk Art
Huntington Museum of Art: Mad About Mummies!
