How many times have you uttered the phrase “there is not enough time in the day to teach everything I need to teach.”? With the constant pressure of meeting standards today, many valuable learning opportunities escape us due to time constraints. Participants in this workshop will discover new and creative opportunities to find the time using the co-teaching model to integrate the arts, technology and the core curriculum.

 Outcomes:

• Teachers will become familiar with the Co-Teaching Model and its benefits
• Teachers will become familiar with the concept of the integrated curriculum
• Teachers will understand the importance of maintaining The Arts
• Teachers will have time to explore examples of integrated projects and OER resources that are available to them
