Lesson Plan
​A Community Project 

Since January 2020, I have been seeing how coronavirus quickly spreads and disrupts many people's lives. 
In the time of crisis, I would like to contribute by providing some creative ideas for parents and children to do. This is the beginning of a journey of hope through arts and education. The project began on March 16, 2020. At first, I designed the challenges and post works done by children in my communities. I am surprised to receive feedbacks from Canada. A few moms in the community shared with me their artistic activities. Now, a group of art teachers in China are excited to share their lesson plans, too.  This certainly has become a global community project. I am humbled to be able to share with their wisdom and experiences in this website (with modification and translation).  I welcome you follow and be inspired by these lessons, then share your creation by simply email your artwork to me at [email protected].
