Years ago I knew nothing about home schooling, it certainly wasn’t in any educational plan I had for our children. However, fifteen years later I absolutely love being able to go to places like the DMA to research art; or places like the Sixth Floor Museum to learn about Kennedy’s presidency. Of course it does mean we were up at 6:30am to knock out Algebra II, English, Chemistry, etc.; but it’s totally worth it.
We were able to venture to the Dallas Museum of Art for a home school art class. But our primary goal was to research a few art pieces for Abigail's American History class. The DMA has a large American history collection, including purple slag pieces like my grandmother collected.
The museum houses a library that's opened to the public during museum hours. It is sandwiched in between the first and third floor exhibit halls and overlooks the cafe. They also have educational packets covering the current museum exhibits incorporating English, History and Social Studies. The packets are available for Elementary, Jr. High and Sr. High students. Best of all, vast majority of the museum is free! Don't miss out on this wonderful resource if you are in the area!
They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling bowls, dishes and all the bronze articles used in the temple service. 19 The commander of the imperial guard took away the basins, censers, sprinkling bowls, pots, lampstands, dishes and bowls used for drink offerings—all that were made of pure gold or silver.
