did you speak to? What did we do? Discuss both artworks that they saw in the museum as<br />
well as the environment: what did the building look like? How big was the museum? Who<br />
were some of the other people you saw at the museum?<br />

collect. Distribute the My Museum organizer and have students answer the questions about<br />
creating a museum of their personal collections. They should draw a picture of their museum<br />
