Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) builds student capacity for observation, critical thinking and communicating ideas through viewing and discussing art.
Continuing on from VTS Part 1 of this year’s Arts Learning Festival, this event provides students and teachers an opportunity to take a virtual tour of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum (ISGM) in Boston.
ISGM’s School Partnership Manager, Sara Egan, will guide participants through selected works in the collection. Students and teachers will then be able to explore their thoughts and ideas through guided discussions with VTS coach, Christine Healey.
Through the lens of VTS, participants will explore the festival theme (Reimagine, Recreate, Renew) and how it can enhance learning and literacy across the curriculum.
