Kinection For Learning
Kinection for Learning (K-12) is an in-depth residency program designed to support and enhance classroom learning through creative movement and kinesthetic learning. The program is purposefully aligned with OH Academic Content Standards in a variety of subjects and grade levels making it easily customizable to the needs of any school and grade. The residency can be tailored to serve schools’ scheduling needs, with options for short, mid, and long-term programming.
GroundWorks teaching artists take academic concepts from any area of core curriculum (STEM) and create new connections and understanding through experiential learning and physical embodiment. There is a common belief that one never forgets how to ride a bike. When an experience engages and connects mind and body, the knowledge is internalized and lives within the individual. Students can then draw upon and expand on such experiences and knowledge again and again, and they are also equipped to express and share their knowledge in different ways.
Kinection for Learning introduces the basic tools and terms of dance through activities structured to increase curiosity, creative problem solving, communication, teamwork, trust, and respect. Goals for the program include:
Enhancing and supporting the understanding of academic core standards and principles through movement
Encouraging creative problem solving.
Increasing focus and interest in academic subjects.
Supporting collaborative exploration, creation, and sharing.
Kinection for Learning brings artists and educators together to create a unique and valuable experience.
