"Since arts experiences offer other modes and ways of experiencing and learning, children will have opportunities to think and feel as they explore, problem solve, express, interpret, and evaluate the process and the results. To watch a child completely engaged in an arts experience is to recognize that the brain is on, driven by the aesthetic and emotional imperative to make meaning, to say something, to represent what matters".

This year, I was lucky enough to partake in a Drama and Dance course that has taught me a variety of strategies, elements, lessons and methods to teaching these arts. I am grateful to have had this experience as I have learned skills that will benefit me in the classroom in the future. 

I have created this blog to share the techniques and information I have learned throughout the 5 weeks and as a resource tool for my future teaching!
