Instead of visiting
NCMA
with your class, we are
bringing the Museum to you!
We have put together a series of art explorations
using works from our current exhibition, which is all
about the color blue. This one is about telling stories.
We hope you enjoy it and can’t wait to see you in our
galleries soon.
P.S. What’s YOUR favorite color?
blue.
storytelling
The following three images all have a story to tell. You are going to tell it!
Choose one of the images and write a story, poem, or song, about what’s
happening. Consider the colors, the action, the mood, the setting and what
you think might happen next.
You can use the sentence starters, or the poetry activity on the next slide or
you do your own thing. There are only right answers!
Feel free to do it as a family-you could even try all 3!
