How can we learn from cultural belongings and artworks? What can these works reveal about the people connected to them?
In this program, students will enjoy a guided gallery tour spotlighting belongings and artworks that embody rich, diverse stories and histories. Students will be invited to make observations, inferences, and reflections about how these works inspire learning and inquiry. Following the tour, students will visit the MOA Learning Lab and engage in a hands-on activity of the teacher’s choosing.
Teachers can choose either:
- An artmaking activity where students reflect on how their personal belongings represent their own stories, histories and experiences.
- An object-based learning activity where students investigate belongings from the touchable teaching collection.
