Landisville Middle School Students Learn About Greek and Roman Culture via Teleconference
On January 28th, Mr. Juba took his 7th grade Cultures class on a virtual field trip to the Cleveland Museum of Art to learn about gods and heroes of Greece and Rome. Distance Learning at the Cleveland Museum of Art allows students to connect with the museum to enrich their studies through their collection of art and artifacts from around the world. This live, interactive videoconferencing event allowed our students to participate in a two-way conversation with the museum educator, Ms. Levine. She helped the students understand the importance of gods and heroes in their culture. Students compared gods and heroes of Greece and Rome and made connections to history and culture through learning about such figures as Heracles, Orestes, and Perseus.
