Literacy Skills Classes 

InCollaboration, Incorporated offers programs in playwriting or screenwriting. Such programs, intended for middle and high school students can be twelve or more weeks in length with a curriculum based upon teaching such concepts as character, setting, mood, plot, conflict, and dialogue to gain an understanding of dramatic writing. For younger students, creating a story book or personal history, biography or autobiography, can be selected instead. Working closely with teaching staff, both teachers and teaching artists will examine student work over the course of the an Arts Partnership to determine student progress and measure student improvement in terms of following direction and staying on task.

 

Thematic Arts Programs thematic arts.jpg (9727 bytes)

Our company will work with schools to present specific subjects and will integrate the arts into these subjects using various themes to highlight or explore the significance of certain events and their consequences.  Depending upon how they are structured, these programs can also advance students’ literacy, communication and social skills, add to their knowledge of history, geography, and current events, and introduce, variably, Internet research, digital photography, videography, roleplay, drama, creative writing, biography and autobiography, music, poetry, culture, costume, and dance as part of a program.

 

Art Appreciation and Art Skills Development:

artappreciation.jpg (7459 bytes)We can offer schools specialized programs in dance, music, drama or visual arts. .  Such programs require advance planning on the part of both the Company and the school but are very much part of the Company’s heritage and strong interest in providing such programs.  Focuses on  a personal understanding and appreciation of the art form itself, rather than placing the emphasis on  social or communication skills The Company seeks out artists professionally trained in the specific art or, in the case of  cultural art forms, artisans who are experts in or native to the form to further a school’s arts curriculum.

InCollaboration Inc. programs are supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, and from the New York State Council on the Arts, a State agency.
