Description:
Art Resource Collaborative for Kids (ARCK)(ARCK) is a 501 c 3 nonprofit looking for Teaching Artists to teach in-school time partnering with classroom teachers. We use visual art as a vehicle to reach students’ greatest potential. We have been developing a curriculum that fits a different theme each year, last year the theme was about refugees, and this year is about climate change. Prospective teaching artists will be trained on how to use our already designed curriculum. Teaching artists will also be part of the ongoing development and improvement of our curriculum. ARCK is currently in two Boston Public Schools expanded to reach more students, working with students Grades k-8th. Our classes align with academic content and learning themes specific to our partner schools and classrooms as well as the Common Core Curriculum and National Visual Art Standards. ARCK uses arts integration by incorporating STEM components to enhance and engage the academic experience of our students while focusing on developing intercultural diversity leadership roles, civic engagement, social justice and 21st Century skills.
