To request these materials, please call (919) 664-6820. Third-grade Art in the Schools ProgramThe third-grade Art in the Schools program introduces students to works at the NCMA that teach about communities around the world. The program is divided into three parts—Meet the Museum, Uncover the Stories, Explore Communities—that help prepare students for a visit to the Museum. The PDF file (requires Acrobat Reader) is a teacher’s version of the program, including information on the selected works, discussion questions and previsit activities. The PowerPoint file (requires PowerPoint or Powerpoint Reader for PC or Mac), which can be presented to students in the classroom, features images of the works of art and streamlined questions drawn from the teacher’s version. We would like to know what you think of this resource. Please complete this survey, and e-mail it back to us with your comments and suggestions for how we might improve the third-grade program.
