Teacher CPD: Unlocking Creativity: Embedding Art Across the Curriculum (Part 1)

Join artist educator Esther Neslen in a workshop based on the research findings of her project ‘Thinking Like an Artist’ in primary schools, providing opportunities to bring creativity into learning.

Esther will share her tips and tricks for incorporating art into the classroom in a fun and engaging way. 

In the session, Esther will touch on topics such as: 

• Different ways of approaching art activities in classroom settings, starting from materials, research, or a theme

• Encouraging and facilitating an open-ended approach to making

• Embedding creativity in diverse areas of the curriculum

There will be opportunities to develop these themes with hands-on photographic and 3D textile activities. Esther will be asking participants to use their smartphones for this workshop. If you do not have a smartphone with camera capabilities, please let us know in advance. All other materials will be provided
 
Open to all levels of experience.

Cross curricular learning opportunities: 
History, Science, Maths, Geography, English, Music 

Please note, this is a two-part series of workshops. Attending both is highly recommended but not essential, as each will make sense on its own.
