Diversity by definition includes the range of human differences. Many times, we forget that diversity can have many facets: race, gender identity, mental/physical ability, communication and learning skills, religion, socioeconomic status, and many more. Join us for an exploration of the dimensions of diversity, how they connect with power and privilege, and how we, as educators, can create learning environments that are inclusive and equitable for all.

ARTS INTEGRATION RESIDENCIES

Environmental Conservation Theatre

Grades: 3 - 7
Subject: Drama, Science

Environmental Conservation Theatre is a memorable Project Based Learning residency that amplifies students’ curiosity and respect for ecosystems. Students deepen their understanding by considering why and how animals thrive (or not) in their ecosystems and share their discoveries in fun group game formats. Next, students develop their powers of imagination and empathy as they create stories about their animals. And finally, students get the opportunity to practice courage, public speaking, and stage presence when they demonstrate what they have learned in final performances in simple costumes they have crafted themselves.
