TEACHING ARTIST SESSION

Number and Letter Recognition (PK-1)

Movement practices meet educational foundations in this workshop. Students practice body awareness while learning letters and numbers through a kinesthetic lens. Students will form and recognize letters and numbers using full-body movement. What a way to learn!
