We are inspired by our Mount Vernon Community of students, families, and staff who are showing great resilience, determination, and creativity to stay connected with one another and to support student learning. Their efforts to continue to make Every Day Count during this unprecedented time are amazing! Teaching & Learning staff are excited to share resources and ideas for staying connected and supporting student learning. Students are likely to hear from their classmates, teachers, and school sites with ways to stay engaged. Maintaining our sense of community supports our social-emotional health and will help each of us to remain engaged in learning. We hope you engage with and enjoy the ideas we post on our Every Day Counts! student learning blog. Stay tuned--we plan to begin posting on Monday, March 23rd! Many of the resources we will be sharing are available to all students via the MV TECHSMART K-12 DIGITAL LITERACY site.

4-3-2020 Paintings Tell Stories


Artists paint canvases to share their stories, their ideas of beauty for others to see. When you look at an artist’s work, you can also start to notice and wonder what story the painting tells you. Choose one of the paintings above, or one from one of the virtual museum tours at this LINK . List what you notice and what you wonder.
  • Write a story that takes place in the painting.
  • Create a drawing or painting using a similar style.
  • After looking at the museum tours, what types of paintings do you like best?
