Teaching Content is Teaching Reading!

April 16, 2011

Are you teaching reading in your arts classroom?

Thank you to Jill Spencer, educational consultant from Maine, author of Everyone’s Invited? and Teaming Rocks! Collaborate in Powerful Ways. Jill established a blog called Teaming Rocks and is a contributing writer to the Bright Futures blog. She shared this video with me.

Here is a YouTube video that provides information about the impact that LEARNING CONTENT has on the development of reading. It is so very important in the arts classrooms. PLEASE take the 9 minutes and 59 seconds to watch! I am certain it will be helpful in your conversation with your colleagues.

Argy’s Blog

The purpose of this blog is to share stories about people and places; and to celebrate the amazing work (and play) that students, educators, and organizations are doing in and for arts education. In addition, the blog has a plethora of resources and innovative ideas. This forum gives blog readers the opportunity to learn from each other. It is essential that we listen, learn, and collaborate in order to build on teaching practices for the benefit of every learner in Maine and beyond.
