Welcome to arts education IDEAS. We are teachers who care deeply
about children, and put them at the center of our decision making. We know
curriculum, the arts, and learning theory – and we use our imaginations
to weave theory, skills and understandings into quality approaches, materials,
and tools for you.
If you are an Orff teacher or music and movement educator, you will
find support for your work and lots of ideas here.
If you are a classroom teacher, you will find imaginative ideas to enrich
your classroom and bring learning to life.
If you are and administrator who believes in the power of the arts to
bring different ways of knowing into your school or district, you will
find approaches here to help your teachers meet the needs of all students.
If you belong to organization that needs help creating a vision, curriculum,
or assessments we are ready to help.
If you are creating media for children that delivers information in,
about, or through the arts we can provide the theoretical and research
background to guide you.
We like to work deeply, and seek long-term relationships. You can start
by reading our articles, exploring our quality materials and educational
tools, and then by planning a workshop or consultancy so we can work
together, putting children at the center of decision-making and curriculum
development. We bring years of expertise and a plethora of models, but
also our always new imaginations. Welcome to IDEAS!
