Thinking Routine Thursday

National Museum of Women in the Arts

Using Harvard Project Zero’s Thinking Routines, students learn about women artists by looking closely at several developmentally appropriate artworks, contributing respectfully to open-ended discussions; posing questions; sharing their opinions; and making connections between visual art and their world. These experiences engage students’ observation and inference skills; improve vocabulary; foster social emotional learning capacities; and introduce various artistic techniques and media.
