Modularity of Programs and Workshops

All  Professional Development and Family Involvement Activities and Workshops are modular, and can be combined in numerous different ways to provide each school with what amounts to a customized program tailored to meet your specific needs.

Similarly, All School Programs and Student Workshops are modular, and can be tailored and modified to meet specific school requirements, budgets, and educational objectives.

School administrators discuss the age of their students, class size, their teaching staff capabilities, talents and interests, and any particular school or student needs, and the art forms on which they are interested in focusing.

There is a teacher planning session at which teachers discuss the topics they are currently teaching in their respective classes and provide input into the topics they wish to see covered in the program.

This process enables our Teaching Artists to offer ideas and suggestions on the direction the program will follow.

All long-term programs have sessions that specifically deal with the use of New York State Learning Standards in the classroom and the topics:

bullet

What is good aINCork and how do we apply it in the classroom? and with respect to the arts,

bullet

What do we want our students to learn, to discover, and to know - and how do we know if they have? 

Two additional topics are almost always discussed in teaching the arts in the special education school programs:

bullet

How do we change behavior? and  How can the arts help to improve behavior

For more information about our program content and structure refer to the sections on Program Design and The New York State Learning Standards.
