Listen "Beyond the Page: Reimagining Texts Through Creativity"
Episode Synopsis
The episode explores Literacy Unbound — an initiative at the Center for Professional Education of Teachers (CPET) — which aims to reimagine traditional approaches to teaching reading and writing through play, creativity, and multiple modalities.
Our panel discusses how to bring the practices of an arts-infused, project-based curriculum developed around shared texts to increase student engagement and build empathy, to your classroom, particularly for students in challenging circumstances like those at East River Academy (ERA) on Rikers Island.
Special thanks to ERA's Principal, Tonya Threadgill, Dr. Jen Gowers, and Dr. Jameon Moss for your voices!
