“Art is powerful – dance is empowering…”

Creative movement provides an opportunity to reach all learners, particularly the kinesthetic learner, in ways that allow them to process and retain information effectively and efficiently. In this second workshop, teachers delve deeper examining ways to enhance their teaching of specific content or a topic through engaging their students with the composition of movement. Explore how to involve students in active learning with Kennedy Center teaching artist, Kimberli Boyd, through improvisational structures that allow students to explore curriculum ideas through movement. Participants will also learn to facilitate a step-by-step choreographic process that will allow students to synthesize learning in the form of movement phrases and dances.
