A4L is a joint initiative of the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, Miami-Dade County Public Schools, and Young Audiences, Inc., a national nonprofit leader in arts-in-education. Arts for Learning believes in the power of the arts to enrich and change lives -connecting teachers, parents, artists and the community to reach children. As one of Miami's leading sources of arts integration services, A4L provides quality arts-based programs that link the arts to other core-curriculum subjects to support academic achievement, build life skills and support child development. PROPOSED SERVICES: School Programs (Early GET smART, GET smARTJ For the 2008-2009 school year, A4L proposes to offer its Early GET smART program to 11 pre-school classrooms and its hallmark GET smART program to two teacher teams The Early GET smART (pre-K) program is designed for children ages two to five. The program uses children's literature as a spring board for the development of arts-integrated lesson plans and activities. All participating classrooms receive a 6-hour Early GET smART professional development workshop; 10 visits from an A4L teaching artist, and 2 coaching sessions with A4L staff. A4L will also provide a Books & Books Book Bundle for each classroom's resource center.

Professional development sessions emphasize planning, teamwork and evaluation. Through ongoing coaching and professional development, classroom teachers, art specialists, and A4L teaching artists work to develop best practices in arts integration. In the 2008/2009 academic year, A4L will offer the GET smART program to two teams of teachers at Fienberg/Fisher K-8 Center. A team is comprised of 5-7 teachers. As part of the refinement process to welcome new teachers and continue to challenge veteran GET smART teachers, A4L teams will be assigned to a Level 1, 2, or 3 group. Level 1 teams receive extensive coaching from A4L staff. As teams progress through each level, they receive more in-classroom arts experiences. Teachers that participate in the program for three or more years and demonstrate expertise as well as interest in arts integration will be invited to become teacher leaders. Teacher leaders offer ongoing support to new GET smART teachers and contribute to A4L's GET smART program design. This year, there will be one Level 2 team and one Level 3 team at Fienberg/Fisher K-8 Center. One team will base its unit on DaVinci and the other on Everglades Past and Present. There are 14 GET smART teachers participating in the 2008/2009 program.

Each residency is considered an after-school course. This includes two courses at Flamingo Park, four courses at Scott Rakow, and four courses at Biscayne Elementary. To reach students beyond the school day, A4L will partner with three after-school sites to provide visual and performing arts instruction that emphasizes life skill development and academic achievement. For this component, professional visual and performing artists, writers, choreographers, and directors work with students to explore selected themes, ideas and concepts through their art making. During the 2008-2009 school year, A4L proposes to offer the City of Miami Beach high quality sequential arts instruction to children eight to twelve years of age enrolled in the after care programs at Biscayne Elementary, Flamingo Park, and the Scott Rakow Center. For these after-school programs, A4L's teaching artists will implement year long residencies.
