Achieving Academic Success through <strong>the</strong><br />

Creative Process<br />

This institute will focus on <strong>the</strong> concept of<br />

arts integration, which is an approach to<br />

teaching that uses <strong>the</strong> fine and performing arts<br />

as primary pathways to learning. The goal<br />

of arts integration is to increase knowledge<br />

of traditional subject areas while fostering a<br />

greater understanding and appreciation of <strong>the</strong><br />

fine and performing arts.<br />

Participants will learn how to develop daily<br />

lessons in math, science, reading and writing<br />

that use <strong>the</strong> arts to engage students fully.<br />
