Introduction to Art Therapy

 
 
 
 

Description

Our school has a Social Emotional Goal we are working on so one of the "Learning" pieces we will be taking on is how we can incorporate Art Therapy into our classrooms.  To kick it off I'm putting together resources for a Pro D session for our Staff around Art Therapy and students.   The plan is for them to do some self-discovery in small groups and gather information on the following:

1) Define what it is
2) Find 1-3 Activities you could possibly do with your class
3) Find 1 activity that suits a particular student's need and explain how it will help him/her
4) Take time to share back ideas and findings to the larger group.
5) Now invite me into you classroom when you are doing one of these activities.

The intention is for this to be a Pro D for a half day.  I've collected and pre-loaded links and video examples to speed up the discovery.
