For K-12 educators, the North Carolina Museum of Art offers this extensive collection of classroom activities and lesson plans centering on objects that can be found at the museum. Although these classroom resources were created with North Carolina Art educators in mind, many may appeal more broadly to art, social studies, and language arts educators around the world. In Works of Art, visitors will find images of various works from the museum accompanied by a short description and tags of major themes invoked by the piece (e.g. Family, Identity, Environment). In addition, some paintings are accompanied by lesson plans. For example, Ralph E.W. Earl's portrait of Andrew Jackson is accompanied by a lesson centering on the portrait itself as well as a lesson about the Trail of Tears. In the Concept Maps section, teachers can check out how other teachers have annotated a variety of works of art at the museum. These annotations can be used to spark classroom discussions or writing assignments about the meanings and stories behind famous artworks.
