Visual art and drama provide comfortable, easy on ramps for students—and educators who may shy away from using the arts. When even the most hesitant teachers dip their toe in the arts, they too are convinced of this powerful way to teach and learn. Participants will explore the research and experience evidence-based visual art and drama activities they can lead with students to build literacy and SEL skills.
