Box 1 177, 131 West Margaret Lane, Hillsborough 27278—www.artsorange.org DocuSign Envelope ID: FF904CCC-8943-46A2-B042-006AF1407ED4 2015-2016 Arts In Education Coalition Grant— Fall Orange County Arts Commission Application Narrative SCHOOL PROFILE The following four schools are all within the Orange County Schools' district: Central Elementary is a Title 1, preK-5, school in Hillsborough with approximately 321 students, 34 certified staff and 69% of students on free/reduced lunch. It is a designated Engineering is Elementary(EiE) school. EiE has created a research-based, standards-driven, and classroom-tested curriculum that integrates engineering and technology concepts and skills with elementary science topics. EiE lessons not only promote science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning in grades 1-5, but also connect with literacy and social studies. New Hope Elementary is a Title 1, preK-5, school located just north of Chapel Hill. The school has approximately 639 students, 54 certified staff, and 61% of students are on free/reduced lunch, It also has the largest ESL population in the district. Efland-Cheeks Elementary is a Title 1, preK-5, school located in Efland with approximately 458 students, 47 certified staff and 66% of students on free/reduced lunch. Partnership Academy provides an alternative academic program for students in the high schools of Orange County Schools. In addition to offering the standard academic programs, Partnership Academy offers enrichment activities to enhance core academics and to facilitate students' character development and personal growth. There are approximately 30 students at Partnership Academy this year, and 64% receive free/reduced lunch. SCHOOL ARTS PROGRAMS Central Elementary, New Hope Elementary and Efland-Cheeks Elementary each have Art and Music as part of their special area classes, which students visit once per week. Partnership Academy does not have any art programs. PROPOSED USE OF GRANT FUNDS From January through April 2016, professional teaching artists will go into all preK-5 classrooms at Central Elementary, New Hope Elementary, and Efland-Cheeks Elementary to work with students to teach them specific curriculum concepts (often times multiple concepts spanning different subject areas) through a desired art form (17 total residencies this school year). In addition, students at Partnership Academy, the alternative high school, will also have the opportunity work with a professional teaching artist on curriculum concepts and character education concepts specifically geared towards high school students. Through a partnership with The ArtsCenter, a non-profit in Carrboro, this program has been implemented at all three elementary schools and the alternative high school since 2013 and provides underserved students opportunities to engage in curricular education through the arts, which they often would not experience outside of school. Through this program, students are exposed to an alternative method of instruction, which really caters to students across the spectrum who have varied learning styles. All students at Central Elementary, New Hope Elementary and Efland-Cheeks Elementary will participate in Arts-Based Learning Experiences (ABLE) residencies, which are five-day residencies designed around a School Show students see at The ArtsCenter. Teaching artists go into classrooms for four sessions prior to students seeing the show(chosen by teachers), and then one session following the show for wrap-up and reflection. On the final day of the residency, the classroom teacher co-teaches alongside the teaching artist and parents/families are often times invited into the classroom to be a part of the experience. Prior to this, classroom teachers and teaching artists meet to collaborate and plan for the residency, and they meet again once the residency is over to evaluate the experience. In addition, grade levels often times incorporate the material from the residency into parent nights, family sharing events or even district-wide events. DocuSign Envelope ID: FF904CCC-8943-46A2-B042-006AF1407ED4 The following is a list of residencies that will take place from January through April 2016 as part of this program. (Attached is a list and description of correlating shows students will see at The ArtsCenter.) Please note that some residencies took place in the Fall of 2015, so those are not outlined on the below chart since OCAC grant funds would not cover those residencies.

Once these residencies are confirmed, the details can be provided to the OCAC upon request. All residencies, as well as the corresponding shows students see at The ArtsCenter, are aligned with curriculum from that particular grade level. For example, fifth graders at New Hope Elementary will participate in a poetry residency with Teaching Artist Howard Craft that is integrated into their social studies curriculum, specifically of the Civil Rights Movement. This ties into the following social studies curriculum concepts: analyzing the chronology of key events in DocuSign Envelope ID: FF904CCC-8943-46A2-B042-006AF1407ED4 the United States, understanding the role of prominent figures in shaping the United States, and understanding how cultural narratives (legends, songs, ballads, games, folk tales and art forms) reflect the lifestyles, beliefs and struggles of diverse ethnic groups. Students will study poetry reflective of the Civil Rights Movement (and how it relates to music) and then write their own poetry, which will then connect to the show, "Sankofa: African American Music From Spirituals to Hip Hop." Students at Partnership Academy will participate in a five-day residency focused on literacy and character education through improvisation thus allowing them to experience self-growth in an enjoyable and safe environment. It improves self-confidence by allowing participants to notice their emotions, capabilities and behaviors. In addition, it teaches students how to work together collaboratively and effectively communicate with others. In addition to the residencies outlined above, classroom teachers will also participate in professional development workshops (at least one per year)where they will learn new strategies for using the arts as a vehicle for instruction. Principals and school leadership teams will choose the specific curriculum and art foci for the workshops. The workshops support teachers, providing them with tools and resources to incorporate arts integration into their daily instruction.

He is a powerful interpreter of Scripture in his own right,and his music has greatly strengthened my agrarian readings of the Bible...."--Ellen F. Davis, A. R. Kearns Professor of Bible and Practical Theology, Duke Divinity School (Durham, NC) "Charles Pettee had such an impact on several Chatham County fourth grade history classes he performed for in September, 2002,that when the children were asked at the end of last year's classes what they most remembered,students said Pettee's musical demonstration... Music caused them to remember history.That is what we're aiming for."

As a teaching artist,I have worked closely with teachers in an array of different classroom settings, bringing rich art instruction to their students and helping the teachers imbue their own curricula with more pedagogically sound art education. DocuSign Envelope ID: FF904CCC-8943-46A2-B042-006AF1407ED4 During residencies, I maintain close working relationships with classroom teachers by sending weekly(and sometimes daily) emails informing teachers of upcoming projects,materials,themes, and any other information integral to our time together. I encourage my partner teachers to email, text, or call with any and all questions,concerns, or suggestions,believing that good communication is the key to a successful residency. I have many years of experience using Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS)with students as well as creating and teaching STEAM-focused lessons for students of various ages. My experience training teachers includes mentoring first and second year art educators;providing professional development workshops at the North Carolina Museum of Art's Educators'Night Out events;running smaller workshops to teach Pre-K teachers how to include more fine art and art history in their curricula; and contributing to larger retreat-type workshops focused on teaching educators to develop art-rich,interdisciplinary lessons for use in their classrooms. I am skilled at differentiating lessons to meet the needs of all learners and have had four years of experience teaching students with mild to severe special needs in self-contained classroom settings as well as in integrated,regular education settings. I have created a number of interdisciplinary art lessons utilizing community resources and institutions (e.g. The Buffalo Holocaust Museum,Albright Knox Art Gallery, University of Notre Dame Kellogg Institute for International Studies, South Bend Museum of Art,Duke University's Literacy Through Photography, Carolina Ballet, Marbles Kid's Museum, etc.)often in collaboration with teacher colleagues in other disciplines. I maintain a solid understanding of theories in art education,pedagogy, child development, art history and criticism,learning models and child psychology and often attend national conferences to improve my teaching craft. While in public and private schools,I created ongoing,rotating displays of student art throughout the school year in the school halls, entryways, school administrative offices, and district administrative offices. At the end of each school year, I organized and put on all-school,multi-floor art show involving at least two to three pieces of art per student and open to the entire school community. (On more than one occasion local television and newspaper crews were in attendance and made public our school's event.)While at The Carrboro ArtsCenter and the NCMA,I created end-of-program art shows for parents and artists,including two large format art shows at Marbles Kids Museum. While teaching full-time in public and privates schools(before having children!) I created and ran after school Art Clubs meeting one day a week for an hour. Every year this club was filled to capacity. While teaching K-8,I entered middle school students in the annual Scholastic Art and Writing competition. Each year, a number of my students were accepted into the regional,juried art show and each year at least one of my students won gold and went on to compete nationally in New York City.

Mama Juggs is a uniquely powerful one-woman performance. It's a trip to grandma's house you will never forget! Mama Juggs has received ovations Off-Broadway in New York,California and in Cameroon,Africa's rainforest.Anita Woodley's courageous and gritty performance in Mama Juggs resonates with the sounds of her native Oakland,California bringing audiences to tears with poignancy and laughter. She artfully transitions between deep complex characters with unapologetic candor as they bond and question cultural taboos. Anita channels the unique voices of three African-American women striving in poverty with the frustrations of breast cancer, late puberty and breast-feeding. The show is woven through with breastfeeding songs passed down from Anita's great-grandmother Suga Babe.

We began by reading biographies of famous African Americans. Students were divided into groups and each group studied a different person. Student took notes on their person to answer 5 essential questions. From their notes, each student wrote a page about their person and a specific time period of their life. Students complied their work on a poster and shared with the class. The other first grade classes also participated and we made a museum in our hallway to celebration what we learned. I was so impressed with my class as they rose to this challenge, it was great to see how much they have grown this year! Balance and Motion We just started our new science unit on balance and motion. Students have been exploring how things balance, and how things move. The first grade team received a grant this year from the Orange County Arts Commission to have a residency with a dance teacher to incorporate movement into our study. We are very excited to experience this with our students and they have been very motivated by our study. Punctuation In writing we are currently studying punctuation and how writers use punctuation. Students are beginning to use periods, question marks, exclamation marks, ellipses, and commas. I am seeing a lot of growth in everyone's writing during this unit. We will begin our buddy study spelling program in the next week or two, more information will be coming. Box Tops! Thanks for all your support sending in box tops and soup labels. Our class took 2nd place in the school-wide contest and received 30 minutes of extra recess as our reward. We are saving this for a nice day when it gets a little warmer. You may still send in box tops at anytime to support our school. Thanks again! DocuSign Envelope ID: FF904CCC-8943-46A2-B042-006AF1407ED4 Work Samples Howard L.

Students all shared their written personal narratives in a refreshing,inspiring space.Ms. Woodley shares well-formed - characters from her award-winning plays, and students may choose to ask their questions of one of these wise,no-nonsense creations. Each story is unique with a different mood and flare. "The students truly seemed to find their `inner story-teller'." says Ms. Jacqueline Kersey,one of the sixth grade class teacher at Neal Middle School. The Stories Come to Life Literacy Residency is successful in helping all students realize that the stories they have are worth sharing with the world, and publishes a book containing each class's work. Each student receives an attractively designed book and certificate of completion. In 1984, at eight-years old,Anita taught her first group of students on how to write stories about their circumstances. The 2015 program of"Stories Come to Life"was made possible through the CAPS program and is funded by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK)grant, Durham Arts Council(DAC)Annual Arts Fund, and Durham Public Schools (DPS) support. Fresh fruits were delivered and prepared by Grocers On Wheels.
