Arts and Tech

Mar 20th, 2014 by Terri McGuire

Arts and Tech is a 6th grade rotations class. The purpose of the course is to use projects to integrate the arts more deeply with core subjects. Our projects include: storytelling, newscasts,video production, recycling, service, and puppetry. These projects require students to use skills and information they are learning in math, writing, reading, science, social skills, and history. Below are films and links to some of our projects.

Puppet Videos – Spring 2015

Students worked in groups to write scripts for fractured fairy tales with a science twist. These shows integrated language arts, performance arts, and science standards.
