arts for Learning lessons
Attend professional development training to learn how to teach A4L Lessons!
Arts for Learning Lessons (A4L) is a supplemental, research-based educational program of flexible, teacher-led instructional units and related artist residencies that integrate the arts to improve students' knowledge and skills for literacy, learning and life.
Working with a design team from the University of Washington led by cognitive scientist Dr. John Bransford, Young Audiences crafted five A4L Units for use by grade 3-6 classroom teachers. All of the units follow Bransford's "How People Learn" model, which involves a gradual transfer of the responsibility for learning from teacher to student.
Each Unit includes 12-18 hours of sequential, cumulative lessons anchored in at least one well-recognized literary work.
