About this event

  • 2 hours

Play It By Ear

When we improvise, we engage students in creating their own ideas and give them a voice in the group. This teacher workshop presented by the WSU Arts Learning Collaborative will explore how adding improvisation to your classroom through music and play can foster creativity and confidence. Participants will take part in hands-on arts-integrated activities they can use to connect the Utah Fine Arts Standards with other subjects. This event is directed toward elementary music and general classroom teachers.

When: Thursday, February 27, 2025, from 4:30-6:30 pm

Organized by

In 2013, the Telitha E. Lindquist College of Arts & Humanities and the Jerry & Vickie Moyes College of Education established a collaborative dedicated to arts learning at Weber State University. The Arts Learning Collaborative supports high-quality arts learning experiences through professional development, advocacy, research, and community partnerships. This endowed program was made possible by the Sorenson Legacy Foundation. Weber State University is a proud university partner supporting the legislatively-funded BTS Arts (a statewide elementary arts integration program). The Arts Learning Collaborative provides year-round professional development and an annual Arts Integration Conference that offers hands-on learning experiences in arts learning and arts integration for K-12. The Arts Learning Collaborative also supports ArtsBridge, BTS Arts Internships, arts education courses, and community projects that nurture the arts.
