AGH: In-Class

Arts-Based Learning in the Classroom

AGH: In-Class brings specially trained local artist educators into your classroom to create and deliver dynamic arts-based lessons to support and enhance the core curriculum. Students will be inspired to collaborate, think critically, problem solve, and communicate their ideas as they develop a deeper understanding of themselves, each other, and their community.

WHAT WE DO

Collaborate with teachers to build cross-curricular lessons focused on exploring and problem-solving real-world issues through creative action.

Activate your core curriculum through dance, song, painting, sculpture, film, music, acting, and more.

Create personalized, inquiry-based learning environments to ignite student engagement and learning in both English and French.

Deliver long-term, sustainable strategies that will positively impact the culture and community of your school.
