Arts Integration Residencies

 

Our Arts Integration Residencies use the theater and puppetry arts to support the social and emotional development of young people. Each session gets kids out of their seats and engaging with their peers, as they learn about their emotions and how to handle them. These sessions, which can range from 6-9 classroom touchpoints throughout a school year, are ultimately designed as real-time modeling of strategies for educators, to inspire them to incorporate within their daily teaching practice. Residency packages can range from strictly student-facing experiences, to full packages that include teacher reflection meetings, professional developments, family engagement opportunities, and live puppet shows. ​

 

Storydrama and Mini Residencies

 

Our Storydrama and Mini-Residency series are designed for students to explore elements of storytelling, while working with their peers to gain emotional intelligence and collaboration skills. Available for students PreK-5th grade, these three-session residencies are tailored to the developmental level of your students, and provide unique opportunities for them to express themselves, use their imaginations, and collaboratively create with their classmates.
