Available in September 2009! Take a journey through time and culture with SAMA's newest Traveling Trunks project. Designed to increase student exposure to the arts, Traveling Trunks allow students the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of history and culture through hands-on experiences. Each trunk contains specially designed costumes based on works of art from the museums collections, reproductions of artworks with accompanying descriptions, books, lesson plans, and music. All activities are aligned with 6th grade TEKS but can be adapted for other grades as needed. Area schools can check out a trunk for up to two weeks. Available Traveling Trunks: Japan Early America Ancient Greece and Rome Ancient Egypt Latin American Folk Art China World Cultures Spanish Colonial Art Contemporary Art | |
K-12 Teachers are invited to use these Guides as teaching tools. | |
