History on Tap

The VA Museum of Fine Arts (located in Richmond) is offering a workshop in March entitled “Our Classical Heritage:  Greece and Rome.”  This workshop is designed for 3rd grade teachers. 

The workshop will take place on Thursday, March 26, 2009 from 4:30-7pm.  There is a $20 fee for the workshop.  If you’re interested, call the VMFA Ticket Desk at 804-340-1405. (You need to call between 9am and 5pm Monday through Friday, or 11am-5pm Saturday and Sunday.)  If you have any questions, call Twyla Kitts at 804-204-2662 or e-mail her at twyla.kitts@vmfa.museum. 

This workshop will take place in Richmond.  Please take that into consideration if you are interested in this workshop~it may require you to take a few hours that day so that you arrive in time.  I’ve heard many good things about the VMFA workshops, so I think it will be worth it.  Register soon, these workshops often fill up early.

I’m starting on the third grade page.  I’ve uploaded matching activities for several SOL’s.  I know it isn’t much yet, but we’re working on it!  If you have any activities you’d like to share, please send them to me and I’ll be happy to upload them to the blog.  Just remember that anyone can access them.

The third grade year in review session is tomorrow, February 26, 2008.  It will be at IRC in Conference Room 1, at 4:15.  Please make sure you RSVP to Mrs. West so that Sarah and I will have enough copies for everyone!
