Effective Reading, Math, & SEL Interventions

Designed with classroom educators, Arts for Learning Residencies are five- to ten-day interventions that support students’ learning in key academic and SEL areas most needed in schools for achieving Title 1 goals. YA’s teaching artists introduce and support priority standards through authentic, hands-on, creative arts experiences. The in-classroom sessions and companion video components engage students’ varying learning styles, and provide turn-key teaching resources for classroom educators.
