Advanced English Field Trip

Mrs. Porter's Advanced English class will be going to the Carnegie Museum of Art on Wednesday, May 12th. These students will be visiting the museum to analyze and interpret art and relate those skills to analyzing and interpreting literature and poetry. This trip is a great way to connect the subjects of English and art through a cross-curricular experience such as this. After the gallery tour, the students will be participating in a writing workshop conducted by the museum that has been specially designed to meet their advanced needs. When the students return from the field trip, they will be using acrylic paints to illustrate the poems that they wrote during the writing workshop. Check the Supernova Team Blog at the end of May for pictures of the students' art work.
