Course Description: This course is designed to enhance oral presentations in the classroom through the use of project based learning to create props, costumes and set designs made from reusable materials. Through guided art instruction, participants create hands-on art projects that integrate differentiated instruction into various learning modalities and multiple subject areas, providing critical thinking skills to enhancing rigor in the classroom. The sessions are broken down into five days of hands-on art making, problem solving, inquiry, observation, documentation and oral presentation. Sessions include: 1). Retelling Stories-Personal Narratives, Using Hats and Masks as Props 2). Music-The Sound of Science; Literacy & Math in Music; 3).  Shadow Puppetry Using Informational Text-People, Places and Things; 4). Costuming/Props/Set Design for Reenactment of Events Fiction/Non Fiction; 5). Studio Art Day/Group Project Work; 6).  Group Presentations and Peer Assessment.
