Make the arts an important part of yourteachingArts for Learning (A4L) Lessons is an arts-integrated supplemental

literacy curriculum that blends the creativity and discipline of the arts

with cutting-edge learning science to raise student achievement in

reading and writing. A4L is research-based and fully aligned with the

Indiana Academic Standards in reading and writing and 21st Century

Skills. This is for use by grade 3-6 classroom teachers.

Working with a design team from the University of Washington led by cognitive scientist Dr. John Bransford, Young Audiences

crafted five A4L units that follow the “How People Learn” model, which involves a gradual transfer of the responsibility for learning

from teacher to student.

Each A4L Unit includes a 3-hour interactive training for classroom teachers, embedded assessment that allows teachers to monitor

student improvement, and a companion artist residency that allows students to deepen their understanding about the art form.

25

To schedule an A4L training

at your school, contact

Ploi Pagdalian by email

[email protected] or by

phone (317) 925-4043 ext 116.

Unit 1: Upside-Down Fairytale

This Unit introduces the theater technique of tableau (or frozen pictures) as a way to teach the literacy concepts of point of view and story elements.

Unit 2: Graphic Story Adventures

This Unit introduces the visual art form of graphic novel (or illustrated

panels) as a way for students to develop visualization skills and understand story elements and author’s choice.

Unit 3: Everyday Heroes

This Unit introduces the visual art form of collage as a way for students to develop the capacity to synthesize,

make text-to-text connection and determine importance.

Unit 4: Planting a Community

This Unit introduces the musical art form of found-sound composition to teach students about theme, inference and

text-to-text connection.

Unit 5: Words in Motion

This Unit brings together the art forms of dance and spoken-word poetry

as a way to teach the literacy skill of prosody, while improving vocabulary,

understanding word meaning, and developing a sense of metaphoric

language.

Each Unit comes with a teacher’s binder, student materials, and other resources.
