Arts for Learning Unit 3: Everyday Heroes
YANEO staff

Through training conducted by Young Audiences staff, any teacher can learn dynamic arts-integration techniques in visual art! The Arts for Learning curriculum that accompanies this session provides teachers with 9-12 hours of classroom lessons and activities designed to enhance classroom teaching. Through the inspiring example of baseball great Roberto Clemente, teachers engage students in synthesizing information, conducting research and communicating meaning through images. Constructing their own collages appeals to students' visual and spatial intelligence. The primary text is Pride of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Collage and the Art of Bookmaking residency has been created to accompany the unit. (Also see A4L short-term residency Collage and the Art of Bookmaking)
