Word.Sound.Power in the Classroom
Education

GRADES 9—12

 
High school students hone their writing craft, refine their performance skills, and analyze poetry in this multi-week residency. Through guided practice with a BAM teaching artist, they create a fun, supportive environment that encourages peer-to-peer critique and deepens their understanding of poetic devices and language.
As students create and perform new works, they develop their individual and collective vision, voice, and power.
There are two ways to bring Word.Sound.Power. to your students!

General Education:This program comprises a full residency of 13 workshops inclusive of in-class instruction and a reflection, each 45 minutes long.

Inclusive Workshops: Developmentally appropriate and responsive to each student’s abilities, the inclusive workshop comprises a full residency of 14 workshops with in-class instruction and a reflection session, each 45—60 minutes long.

Please contact Mikal Lee at mlee@bam.org to enroll.
