Post Institute Reading Lists, Thoughts, and What Nots...

Hello Hello!

So it has been a little while since we were all gathered at 743 Westminster Street. Since then the Facilitation Team of Fellows and Staff have gotten together to begin processing our notes and all the documentation from the weekend.

From our wrap up conversation on that final Monday afternoon one note we took away was the desire for a blog for y'al to share reading lists and further thoughts on your work and endeavors.

This is It!

Currently in my pile of reading are a bunch of articles from my various Art Education jobs in Museums and Schools-

Cultivating a Culture of Thinking in Museums by Ron Ritchhart

A Teen Programs How-To Kit from the Walker Art Musuem

Chapter 1 of
The Power of Our Words - General Guidelines for Teacher Language by Paula Denton


On the book front I am looking at-
