Suggested Activities and Discussion

Consider these questions for reflection:

• How would you create a multi-arts, multigrade performance as a culminating event for a unit of study in your curriculum?
• What grades would you combine? Why?
• With which classroom teachers, specialists, local artists, or other resource people would you collaborate?
• What subject matter would you cover? Why?
• What standards would you address?
• What questions would you want students to ask and be able to answer as they create a multi-arts performance?
