Teach

Welcome to the TEACHER section of our ITINERARY IN CONTEMPORARY ART

The Musée d’art de Joliette offers you a wealth of activities to discover and observe a selection of works from its contemporary art collection.

Designed to fit your needs, these resources offer :

• A thematic exploration of the permanent collection
• Online discovery activities
• Classroom activities

Within each youth activity proposed in the PLAY section, you will find a link to a teacher’s guide instructions in the TEACH section. And within each guide component, another link brings you directly to the corresponding PLAY section activity.

We also invite you to consult the UNDERSTAND section for supplemental information tools you can use in the classroom, including :

• An interactive chronology
• A glossary of commonly used terms in contemporary art
• A HOW TO KNOW to prepare your kids or your students for a visit (adult and youth versions)
• A summary of works by contemporary art current
• A summary of works by media

We wish you an excellent visit.
