Did you turn in your lesson plan?!
Teachers who attended the NEH Picturing America conferences were required to write a lesson plan or teaching activity based on the content of the conference. If you have not already done so, please email your lesson promptly to Elizabeth Aaron at ejmaaron@andromeda.rutgers.edu. Thank you!
We look forward to sharing the lessons with all our participants as well as a broader audience later this fall through our blog and the Educators' area of our Museum website.

In Preparation for the Conferences
John Updike's Lecture entitled "The Clarity of Things" What is American about American Art?, dated May 22, 2008 at the National Endowment for the Humanities is a great podcast to listen to in preparation for the NEH Picturing America conference at The Newark Museum.
At the conference, you will receive several books from the Museum, but they are not required reading for the sessions! Rather, we hope you take them home and read them on your own after the conferences. They will add to and enrich your understanding of our scholars' presentations.
