View source for Curriculum for critical thinking about the arts

{{:Summer of Content project proposal header}}<!-- DO NOT TOUCH THIS LINE --> 

== Project description ==

With all of the creative, artistic projects available for kids on OLPC--make music! draw! etc--there is the unique opportunity to plug in a teaching module for critical thinking about the arts. As someone who has written a lot of music and arts criticism, I could develop a curriculum with the aim of teaching kids to comment on the creative output of other kids in the class in a constructive way. This would be with the goal of teaching basic writing skills.
