EduCon 2.8

Participants will leave with instructional strategies, lesson plans, authentic materials and other resources for using street art. Because the presenter will model the use of these resources (not merely present them), participants will know how to use them in their own classrooms to develop their students' language and cultural competence.

In this session, the presenters will model instructional strategies and lessons that use street art to engage students and to improve their language and cultural competence. The session is ideal for educators interested in arts integration and exploring the 5C's in innovative ways. In order to experience the material as students, attendees need to participate actively in the lessons as they are modeled. The format will be highly interactive and resources shared will include video, still images, audio clips and interview transcripts. Participants will leave with instructional strategies, lesson plans, and authentic materials.
