a.) The visit to SDMA was fun and educational. It was interesting to see the different ways you can connect art to the different subjects you teach to students. The tour guide did a great job in connecting the art pieces and explaining the different colors and textures. It was informative to see how you can ask questions and teach to different levels of students which connect to diverse subjects. It was also nice to see the different cultures in the variety of art pieces we looked at and examined. SDMA was a fun experience and we got a lot of information on how to teach and connect art to students.
b.) I think museums are viable and accessible to elementary and high schools if teachers actually look for it. I think a lot of schools don't know about the different museums that offer opportunities for teachers and students to go and observe art work. I'm sure just like SDMA other museums offer programs for teachers to get involved and learn how to incorporate art with school work. I remember when I was in elementary school in 6th grade we went to visit SDMA to look at an exhibition which connected to what we were learning in school. It was an educational and exciting way to experience something different but still learned a lot about the subject we were learning about.
