LACMA

Each summer I stalk wait patiently for the LACMA field trip site to open. The competition is fierce for grants and I have been VERY fortunate each year to score a free field trip AND free bus for my awesome students and my fantastic colleague and her class.

Today we went on that amazing field trip to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. I love the LACMA trip so much because the docents are simply outstanding. They are art gurus with teaching experience and the kids gain so much from the trip. 

The kids loved the art, but they may have loved the space even more. Rolling down a grassy hill on a beautiful day in the city - what could be better?

Oh yeah - this is what's better - working on Common Core skills like collaborating about art and thinking critically about Hockney's depiction of LA!

An amazing day!
