Through training conducted by Young Audiences staff, any teacher can learn dynamic arts-integration techniques in music! 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. Paul Fleischman's Seedfolks provides the story through which students learn theme, inference, and text-to-text comparison. Students' musical creations reinforce character traits, plot, and overall theme. The Sound Shapers residency has been created to accompany the unit. (Also see A4L short-term residency Sound Shapers)
