On November 15th, 2010 there was a whole lot of sharing and learning taking place in the Circle Room at the Woodruff Center. All of the 18 participating smART stART Site Coordinators came from all over the state of Georgia to meet with their Teaching Artist to officially begin the smART stART program. Among the topics discussed were assessment, unit plans for their residency, and arts integrated strategies for teaching literacy to young students. Site Coordinators were introduced to arts based approaches in all of the major artistic disciplines – Theatre, Dance, Visual Arts and Music. All sessions were facilitated by YA staff and YA Teaching Artists making for a hands on fun filled day. The enthusiasm shared by all of the participants helped brighten up the rainy day making the second fall smART stART workshop a success! Thanks to all of those who participated.
