21. 21 Activities for the one computer classroom Look for ways you can supplement your curriculum with Internet resources. For example, my textbook talks about murals that are popular in many communities in the U.S. It mentions the influence of Rivera, Orozco, and Siquieros. So I went to the Diego Rivera Museum, http://diegorivera.com/index.php and downloaded a site with about 15 examples of Diego Rivera's work. Then I showed them to the students with the TV monitors. http://diegorivera.com/index.php In the movie unit, I used the movie activity, "Movies in Madrid..." (http://www.clta.net/lessons/index.html).http://www.clta.net/lessons/index.html In the travel unit, (lakes, mountains, waterfalls, cathedrals, jungles, taking pictures) I used "Fotos de la Argentina."
