Field trip to RW Norton Foundation during class on Tues, Mar 12; parents invited

Visits to the Norton must include an adult for every 10 students. Thus - with some 30 students - several parents are needed on the Tues visit to the gallery.

Weather will be excellent, says weather.com. Thus I recommend everyone bring a sack lunch and a drink and we will eat on the Norton grounds.

The bus will be boarded at the beginning of the period - 11:50. We should arrive at Norton about 12:10.

Leaving at 1:35 will be adequate to get us back to campus in time for the 1:55 bell to go to the next class.

30 mins for eating.
10 mins campus tour.
12:50 - 1:35 museum time.

Students must take notes and photos.
- 3 works from the Guild Hall, Long Is, exhibit.
- 3 works from the museum proper.
- Snap the art and immediately snap the info tag adjacent to the work.
A brief lecture on the Guild Hall exhibit will be presented by teacher Robert Trudeau.

In the next class students will write an essay - reportage or critical essay -
on the examples collected.
