OneWorld Classrooms welcomes teachers and parents to register their classes or schools to participate in the K-12 International Art Exchange. Participating students share their culture as they learn about cultures around the world – by sharing their artwork. Each participating class/school submits 30 pieces of student artwork which, in turn, are sent to a variety of schools around the world. Each participating class/school also receives a package of 30 pieces of student artwork created by students from a variety of schools around the world.

The NYS Alliance for Arts Education (NYSAAE) is pleased offer “Arts For All: Differentiated Instruction and the Arts,” a workshop for teaching artists and educators with speaker Russel Granet. This workshop will focus on the practices and theories of arts education as it applies to working with elementary/secondary students with special needs.

This workshop is provided as required professional development for those participating in the Side by Side – NY Program BUT is also open to all those interested in attending.

Presented at three different locations, this workshop is appropriate for sequential arts and general classroom teachers interested in learning new ways of enhancing their instruction through arts integration.
