The Art of Reading: Language & Visual Art Connections for Early Readers from the Old Jail Art Center
Our most popular workshop ten years in a row! Come again and enjoy NEW materials and projects that blend language and visual art in fun ways for early learners!
Workshop provides a year’s worth of monthly enrichment lessons that connect classic and popular children’s literature with visual art and cultural artifacts from the museum collection. Each lesson provides strategies to develop or enhance visual thinking, verbal and listening skills for ages 5-7. Coordinating classroom activities/crafts are additionally designed to encourage creativity and fine motor-skill development.
Very hands-on workshop; leave with curriculum packets, digital images for classroom use, finished activity samples and freebies!
