| Music Center 2009-10 Saturday Professional Development Workshops (PDW) Series for AIP and ACT Teachers.
Join the Music Center's Master teaching artists and learn to teach arts concepts and skills that link to English Language Arts and student learning.
Designed for teachers participating in the Institute for Educators Arts Integration Partnerships (AIP )and Arts Capacity Team (ACT) network to build their knowledge and skill in Theatre, Puppetry/Visual Arts, Music and Mime. All AIP and ACT teachers and their school colleagues are welcome.
These hands-on workshops are linked to Model Lessons created around an "anchor work" - a work of art that encompasses the artistry, substance and rigor for inquiry and interpretation.
Two anchor works are featured: Maya Angelou's powerful poem "On the Pulse of Morning" and the brilliant musical story of "Peter and the Wolf" by Sergei Prokofiev - one of the most appreciated classical works of the 20th century. The Institute Model Lesson Booklets will be posted on the Music Center web site.
Here's what teachers are saying about Music Center teacher professional development:
"It really shows how art, drama and music can be integrated into the regular everyday lessons and overall curriculum in so many different ways."
"Personally, I have gained confidence in myself and a new love and respect for poetry, theatre and puppetry."
