Hello Folks Many thanks for all the replies I received regarding the following query: I'm currently working on creating a schools learning pack to compliment our newly established permanent collection of fine art and also our Jolomo retrospective in the summer. This is a new subject area for me as I have more of a library background than museums so I thought it would be useful to get some wisdom from you excellent Gemmers ... do any of you have any examples of learning packs you could share with me or examples of activities that have worked well with engaging children/young people with paintings? The pack will include information and activities aimed at Early Years. Primary and Secondary. Any advice and tips would be most welcome. I had a few folk saying they would be interested in what replies I received so here are the resources I was directed to. They have been really useful in helping to get an idea of what is out there. Museums Galleries Scotland: http://www.museumsgalleriesscotland.org.uk/what-we-do/learning-and-access/formal-learning-and-museums/what-is-hands-on/ National Gallery: http://www.takeonepicture.org/picture/previous.html Fitzwilliam Museum http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/dept/education/learningresources/learningresources.3.html Tate http://www.tate.org.uk/learn/online-resources www.dymondgreen.co.uk<http://www.dymondgreen.co.uk> I haven't sent any attachments folk sent me as I'm not sure how people would feel with me sharing their work without asking their permission. Thanks again to everyone who sent me ideas and thoughts. They have been really helpful:) Best Sophie Sophie Hawkey-Edwards Libraries and Cultural Services 19 Poplar Road Broadmeadow Industrial Estate Dumbarton G82 2RJ 01389 608 163 ________________________________ The information contained in this message is confidential and is intended for the addressee only.
