​

E•STEAM is the signature learning philosophy behind SEA of Visibility Integrated Arts Education. An emphasis on empathy, emotion identification and inclusion of socio-emotional learning to enhance existing STEAM programs and introduce new, holistic interdisciplinary STEAM programs. We train teachers to bolster the self-esteem of students to heighten motivation—crucial to more long-term success, especially if there is a “special needs” “problem” labeled with a student. There will be warm-up exercises, sample lessons, materials, and resource supplied with each session. 

 

Session II

This class is dedicated to identifying learning styles, markers of diagnoses and challenges without an IEP. 

 

Session III

:

“Meeting students where they are at” approach using alternative learning strategies that employ multiple modalities, casting a wide net from the get go to lessen singling students out. Gaining flexibility when a student needs a different approach.
