The @columbusmuseum is such a special place for so many reasons. The art, the people, the space. It also houses an education department that is challenging the status quo of what schools can be. Do yourself a favor & take a look around columbusmuseum.org/resources… #teachers

When kids are deprived of play, their mental health suffers.
Over the past 50 years, the time kids spend playing outside and inside has plummeted. They're missing opportunities to bond, build self-control, be creative, and feel joy.
Free play is a key to happiness and growth.

Some reflective questions to ask students. Sometimes it’s helpful to provide these to parents, admin., students to help them model deeper questioning. Then let them develop their own beautiful questions. #edchat #edutwitter #k12artchat #dtk12chat

Slowing down with art feels good.
Find calm and respite by breathing deeply and noticing the many details in this work. What might it feel like to step inside?

One of the most beloved free-to-use photos in the Library's collection is of Brünnhilde, for obvious reasons. We're happy to report that 2023 comes with a freshly digitized photograph of Brünnhilde from another angle. 😻

In the past couple of days as i turn my attention to the upcoming school year i’ve been framing questions for students like ‘how can this class be more fun?’ And ‘how can we engage in serious play?’

If you’ve been impacted by the recent power outage in Columbus and have incurred expenses (spoiled food, hotel costs) you SHOULD file a claim with @AEPOhio for your loss at AEPclaims.com. Be sure to take photos of anything you throw out.
