In anticipation of this celebration of the Navajo the education office has purchased a number of ixx;ks on the topic available for you to borrow for your summer reading. Come into the office and take your choice! Books range from primary grade to adult reading level. One of the books is a good photographic documentation of Navajo life today; several feature the Navajo Creation Story. You may have good information on Navajo culture, arts, myths at home; ~d don:t overlook the Tony Hillerman mystenes which contain excellent descriptions of present day life and traditional ways of the Navajo. REFRESHER COURSE for FALL ~e Fall docent workshop, beginning October 13, will be a refresher course on docenting, something you won't want to miss. Kaye, Ann and Betsy came back from the National Art Educators' conference in Phoenix with some great ideas for working with children in the Museum which we hope to incorporate into the workshop. Please let us know if there are specific topics on docenting that you would like included in the fall workshop. |
