Visual literacy is a strong focus of this program. Students are introduced to China through its rich puppetry history. Students view puppets and replicas from the Center's global museum collection with open Q & A and discussion.
Short video clips, visual aids, and a hands-on puppet building activity make this an engaging learning activity great for your classroom.
