Leonard Bernstein’s one-act opera reflects his incredible ability to fuse language and music into this contemporary gem. A hybrid of jazz, contemplative melodies and a libretto as relevant today as it was when premiered in 1952.

Directed by daughter Jamie Bernstein, performed with full orchestra and a gifted cast - this synergy of music, emotion and learning will be thrilling.

session highlightsCurriculum Mapping with Artful LearningParticipants will be coached how to dismantle and reassemble their content areas/required initiatives through the process of curriculum mapping. Demonstrated procedures will be modeled with how to analyze what students must understand, know and do within the context of a prescribed time period. Participants develop and complete a working curriculum map that is arts-aligned and ready for unit design.

How to Integrate the Common Core State Standards into an Arts-Aligned Unit of StudyDesigned to demonstrate integration of the respective Common Core State Standards into each participant’s unit. Because the standards allow for a wide-range of differentiation for student responses, the Artful Learning framework is a tremendous platform for incorporation.

Curriculum Mapping sessions empower educators with the skills needed to explore their content areas and find a nexus of standards. Educators collaborate together to examine and discuss how best to integrate and then align all aspects of their curriculum.
