Self-Taught Genius Curriculum Guide
The Curriculum Guide for Teachers K–12 is a resource developed in conjunction with the exhibition. Designed for educators to use in the classroom before, after, or—if you cannot make it to the exhibition during its national tour—in lieu of a museum visit, the Curriculum Guide provides a framework for the exhibition and presents information about selected artists and artworks and offers topics for classroom discussion, writing activities, and art projects that introduce the key ideas of the exhibition. The Guide includes collection images, lesson plans, a glossary, and a bibliography.
Please let us know what you think of these materials. How did you use them? What worked or didn’t work? Contact the education department at education@folkartmuseum.org.
