  • Met Museum  The Metropolitan Museum of Art—the educator’s section has images, pdfs of lessons, and entire books for teachers to access online.
  • National Gallery of Art (Washington, D.C.) You have a wide variety of sites to explore here, but what most caught my eye was that teachers may borrow free-loan teaching materials.  There are also online educational games that students will enjoy.
  • People to People International Global Youth Murals celebrate peace through the arts!  This is also another pen pal possibility through Pres. Eisenhower’s People-to-People organization. It is free and the organization does a very careful match up of your school with a willing partner somewhere in the world.

  • Kinder Art
    Great website for kindergarten teachers.  There are many free printables (for classroom use only).  Downloads are not free however.
