Classroom Teachers
Our projects:
Offer extensive support for teachers, often including student-facing video content.
Build knowledge around common academic topics, supporting cross-content learning.
Encourage students to make authentic and personally relevant connections to the learning being done.
Often, classroom teachers understand the benefit of art education, but don’t know where to start.
We support classroom teachers with content and lesson planning, and work to remove pain points, such as demonstrations, so that they can more easily incorporate art as a teaching tool in their classroom.
We have cross-content experts helping to develop our curriculum; meaning that classroom teachers can use our art curriculum to build knowledge, engagement, and understanding across a range of academic topics.
