Join Inspired Child teaching artist and professional dancer, Sylvana Christopher, for a holistic storytelling that focuses on our natural ability to reimagine stories that awaken the imagination. In this workshop you will learn how shapes, expressions, and gestures can support social emotional and cognitive learning. We’ll learn to chant simple mantras that support classroom goals as well as create characters highlighting spatial relationships, emotional connection and more. Participants will practice creating dance plays to connect to favorite books and classroom curriculum themes.
