In-school Student Workshops
Q42 1 Rev
At PS 147, the arts support other subjects such as literacy, science, social studies, and math. While we do not have a full-time certified arts teacher on staff, we do utilize the talents of various outside teaching artists to provide visual and performing arts instruction to students in Pre-Kindergarten through fifth grade. In addition to in-school teaching artist residencies and workshops, students attend off-site field trips which provide authentic arts learning experiences in all genres of the arts. All classroom teachers have been trained in visual thinking strategies and arts instruction is aligned with New York State Arts Standards as well as ArtsCount and the NYCDOE Blueprints for Teaching and Learning in the Arts.
Q43 1
Due to COVID-19, our school relied heavily on virtual residencies, workshops and field trips. Some of these activities were funded through grants or via the school budget, but many came about as a result of the relationships we have built with community arts partners. Their generosity of time and expertise facilitated a significant portion of PS 147's arts education programming during the 2020-2021 academic year. Though funds were limited this year, we were able to provide authentic arts experiences for our students through these partnerships as well as through the infusion of art into the curriculum by our teachers and AIS support staff. We are hopeful that next year's budget will allow us to continue to provide this vital component of elementary education to our students.
