🎶 🎨 When we bring music and art into the humanities classroom, we give students new ways in. A song or a painting can spark noticing, questioning, and wondering.

In the Forum, Close Listening: Music in the Humanities Classroom, teachers explored what happens when students read and write to music, using sound as a doorway into close reading, lively discussion, and expressive writing.

At the Hessel Museum of Art, teachers wrote in response to the museum's stunning new exhibitions featuring three remarkable women artists:
🧵 Marilou Schultz- acclaimed fourth-generation Navajo/Diné weaver and mathematics educator
🎨 Uman- multimedia artist based in upstate New York whose work traces her winding path as an immigrant and her evolution as a self-taught artist
🖼️ Betty Parsons- abstract painter, sculptor, and legendary champion of mid-century New York art.

Welcome to the July Weeklong Workshops!

Yesterday we welcomed educators to Bard College for the start of a week dedicated to reading, writing, and thinking together.
From check-in and conversations over dinner to meeting new colleagues and settling into residence halls, the first day is always full of anticipation and excitement.

Over the coming week, participants will explore new classroom practices, write together, reflect on their teaching, and become part of a vibrant learning community.

Next week, our campus will once again be filled with educators from across the country and we couldn't be more excited.

Behind the scenes, the Institute for Writing & Thinking team has been busy preparing classrooms, organizing materials, assembling welcome packets, and putting the finishing touches on a week designed for reading, writing, conversation, and community.

Here's to a week of new ideas, meaningful conversations, and the joy of learning together. We can't wait to welcome you to Bard.

Registration is still open!

Register by Friday, June 12 to take advantage of extended Early Bird discounts.

For many teachers, the school year leaves little room for the kind of writing that helps us notice, reflect, and connect. The July Weeklong Workshops at Bard College are devoted to slowing down and writing alongside other educators to rediscover what writing can make possible for ourselves and our students.
