All Write Already!

Writing Across Curricula - An Instructional Tool in Theater and Dance

Beschreibung

Whether it was to clean the barracks or check for foreign objects on the flight line, "All-hand-on-deck!" applied to every breathing body on the ship or in the building; rank did not matter. The same concept should apply to all teachers with writing, elective teachers included. To increase literacy and writing in our schools, all hands-on deck is necessary. Professional development on how to insert writing can help. If our young scholars are to be effective communicators, literacy in the arts can help. Do not view writing as an enemy or additional content you must teach. Work it as a tool. This workbook, ALL WRITE ALREADY! Writing Across Curricula, an Instructional Tool in Theater and Dance, can be the toolbox for the job. All Write Already! is designed to equip teachers with practical activities that strengthen literacy and boost our students' confidence about the arts and the world around them. Research cries out for creative change regarding literacy and the inclusion of writing. Increased literacy cannot be achieved without your hands. With grace and humility, ALL WRITE ALREADY! Peruse for a tool that works, mesh it into your course curricula, and encourage another to join the task. L. René Christian

Ms. L. René Christian, Ms. Lezlie to most, is a native of Columbus, Ohio, a mother of one, and a veteran of the United States Navy. She holds a BA in Theatre Arts with a Concentration in Education from Northern Kentucky University and an MFA in Creative Writing from Liberty University. The former grade k-12 teacher of 17 years taught the performing arts in theater, dance, and performing arts in Cincinnati, Ohio. Ms. Lezlie is also a solo performer, directed the Dance Summer Institute of GRAD Cincinnati, served as Company Manager and a dance instructor for Born 2 Dance (B2D) Productions, and choreographed two musicals for Cincinnati Conservatory Music Preparatory Department (CCM Prep) at the University of Cincinnati. She currently operates her nonprofit, NuLyphe (New Life) Performing Arts, Inc., and writes. Her joy in writing has brought two previous unpublished copyrights, The Ink Pen (2012) and Chameleon, a one-woman show (2018). Now operating in her passion for the arts and literacy, L. René Christian weaves a first-of-its-kind interactive workbook derived from lessons she created as a classroom teacher. With All Write Already!, she wishes to reach across the hemispheres, arts educators who need to integrate writing into the classrooms, current and future performing artists developing their craft, and all who strive to advance literacy in children.
