At Ridgeway Elementary School in White Plains, New York, team members
worked all year planning and teaching a sequence of instruction leading
to a multi-arts performance piece.
The team from Drew Model School in Arlington, Virginia, invited other
interested teachers to work with them on a variety of lessons and units
that integrated the arts with other subjects.
The entire faculty at Kingsbury Elementary School in Memphis, Tennessee,
participated in schoolwide planning to make good use of community arts
resources.
In this session, you will reflect on the work of the Learner Teams and
discuss how your school might act similarly or differently. You also will
think about specific ways that you and your colleagues might increase
the role of the arts in your classrooms.
