Art Institute Field Trip

Today, the 6th grade class took a field trip to the Art Institute of Chicago.  We took a tour of the Medieval and Renaissance gallery and the students compared and contrasted the different types of art.  I was impressed with how observant the students were.  They noticed a lot of detail about the paintings and applied their knowledge about the differences between the Italian Renaissance and Northern Renaissance.  Because it was a gorgeous day, the kids also spent time exploring Millennium Park and Maggie Daley Park. This week, students are learning about the Scientific Revolution and Age of Exploration.

Questions for your 6th grader:
  • Tell me about your favorite painting from the field trip.
  • How did the Renaissance influence the Scientific Revolution?
