American Gothic House

Grant Wood, American Gothic, 1930
Art Institute of Chicago

Soon the second graders from Ms. Farkas and Mrs. Madigan's class will travel to Eldon, Iowa--by Skype--to meet second graders in Ms. Greiner's second grade class.  Eldon is home to the Gothic House featured in Grant Wood's famous painting American Gothic.  Both classes are developing questions to ask the other.  We're so excited!
