Looking for an art-based curriculum to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month? This curated resource collection has you covered. Visitors can explore the more than 75 included items (as of this write-up) by region (e.g. "Asian America" or "The Diaspora"), topic (e.g. "Art Conservation" or "Folklore & Mythology"), type (e.g. "activity" or "lesson"), grade level (from pre-K to post-college), and academic subject (e.g. "Art History" or "STEAM"). Featured materials span a variety of themes and subjects, providing something of interest for everyone. For example, elementary school educators may enjoy the "Create Your Own Illustrated Haiku" lesson, which combines language and visual arts and welcoming creativity. A Walk Through the Chinese Galleries is directed at high school students and offers an encapsulation of history, culture, and art in an approximately 30-minute video. Most lesson plans include downloadable materials, instructions, and a list of educational standards met. These resources are a part of the Asian Art Museum's Education section, which provides "the best of Asian art at the tip of your fingers for use in the classroom or at home."
