Arts, Care, and Connection

Attention Oregon Educators!

Arts for Learning Northwest has partnered with Oregon Department of Education and teaching artists throughout Oregon to create a series of lessons and resources for K-5 students integrating the Transformational Social Emotional Learning Framework and Arts Mediums including music, dance, theater and visual art.

This is a great resource for teachers who are hoping to introduce arts or SEL focused work into their classroom but feel unsure of where to start. Join us to learn more how to find and utilize these lessons.

This work is done in partnership with ODE’s Care and Connection campaign and integrates Oregon’s Transformative SEL Framework & Standards and Oregon’s Core Art Standards.

Format:

Live/Synchronous on date listed and recording available following. All registered individuals will receive link to recorded webinar.

PDUs provided for individuals who attend webinar live/synchronous with confirmed attendance.
