From vibrant dance and music to puppetry and visual arts, it celebrates the creativity and heritage of Ecuador, Cuba, Bolivia, El Salvador, Spain, Venezuela, and beyond. This educator-focused collection offers ready-to-use, cross-curricular lessons and hands-on activities suitable for grades K-12. You'll find engaging units, such as K-2 puppet-making, middle school cultural explorations, and high school dance projects--each designed to deepen students' understanding of Latin American arts while strengthening connections to history, language, and identity. If your district blocks YouTube, then the videos may not be viewable.

Looking to spark creativity while boosting comprehension across your curriculum? The Art Sprouts article "How to Incorporate Art into Different Subject Curriculums" offers a treasure trove of ideas for seamlessly blending visual art into science, math, history, language arts, and even PE. For science, it suggests using scientific illustration, nature journaling, infographics, economics, language arts, and chemistry art projects to enhance observational understanding. In math, tessellation, geometric designs, fractal art, origami, and data visualization help students grasp key concepts visually. Integrating art into history and language arts includes portraiture, cultural artifact studies, political cartoons, book illustrations, comic creation, poetry posters, and storytelling murals. Even physical education can benefit from action painting and movement-based performance art. Overall, the post emphasizes that art can deepen cross-disciplinary understanding, strengthen academic skills, and help students make meaningful connections while enjoying learning.

In the Classroom
Take students outside to observe plants or animals and have them record their findings through detailed sketches and annotations. They can complete the journals online using Book Creator, reviewed here. Combine movement and art by having students dip sponges or brushes in paint and use physical motions -- jumps, swings, spins -- to create large collaborative canvases, connecting creativity with kinesthetic learning. After studying a historical figure, have students create a timeline using MyLens, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

If you want to help students explore the meaning of the season, check out this ReadWriteThink page, which offers a creative, literacy-rich way to welcome winter. This resource guides students in brainstorming winter words and images, reading a seasonal picture book, and using interactive tools, such as a Venn diagram or a postcard creator, to compare their own winter experiences with those in literature. It also encourages reflection on family and community traditions and invites the class to begin a new tradition of their own for the first day of winter. This page is an engaging way to blend ELA skills with seasonal awareness and personal connection.
In the Classroom
Start with a class brainstorming session where students list words, feelings, images, and sounds connected to winter. They can record ideas on sticky notes or a shared chart, just like the activity suggests, to build seasonal vocabulary. Have students design a "Winter in My World" postcard that includes an illustration on the front and a short message on the back describing a personal winter tradition or memory. Inspired by the website suggestion, have students brainstorm ideas for a new classroom tradition to celebrate the first day of winter. They can vote on one tradition, create posters announcing it, and write about why it represents the spirit of winter.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

The "Mix & Move with AI" unit from Code.org is a free, hands-on curriculum that engages students in creating, coding, and choreographing digital media using artificial intelligence. Students experiment with remixing music, designing virtual dancers, and exploring how AI models generate creative outputs. The lessons are easy for educators to use, even without prior AI experience, and include teacher guides, student activities, and discussion prompts that encourage computational thinking, creativity, and responsible AI use. Some videos and tutorials are hosted on YouTube, so teachers should check school access settings before use.
tag(s): artificial intelligence (315), coding (109), dance (42)
In the Classroom
Have students use the interactive platform to design a virtual dancer that moves to a chosen beat. They adjust rhythm, tempo, and style to see how AI interprets movement and music together. Have students remix an existing dance by changing AI-generated moves or music selections. Discuss how machine learning can be creative but still depends on human choices and input. Encourage students to invent their own AI-powered creative project ideas, such as generating a story rhythm, creating a visual art piece with AI, or coding a short interactive show. Then, have them present their prototype or plan to the class.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

In the Classroom
Have students highlight or annotate key details in a short Kwanzaa article using Kami tools, focusing on symbols like the kinara, mkeka mat, and unity cup. They can share one discovery with the class. Using a free Kami template, have students select one of the seven principles and write a reflection on how that value can be applied in school. Then, add images, icons, or drawings to bring it to life. Groups can collaborate in Kami to design an online poster that explains the meaning behind Kwanzaa traditions. Then have them present their digital display to the class or embed it into a class website to teach others.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

In the Classroom
Students can retell events from a novel or a historical figure's life using a timeline with images and clickable text, making reading comprehension more interactive and visual. Have students create timelines that connect historical events with scientific discoveries or literary works from the same era. Assign specific events to different students or groups to add to a shared timeline, promoting teamwork and reinforcing sequencing skills. Students can build a yearlong timeline of their learning journey, showcasing key projects, reflections, and academic milestones to share during student-led conferences.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

In the Classroom
Have students design and build a Valentine's candy box that can protect its contents when dropped from a height of three feet. Provide basic materials, such as cardboard, cotton balls, tape, and paper, to encourage creative thinking and collaboration. Challenge students to design a heart-shaped parachute that will slow the fall of a candy box. Use tissue paper, string, and tape to explore drag, air resistance, and basic physics concepts. Before building, have students use a digital design tool like Google Drawings reviewed here to visualize and plan their candy box. This allows them to apply tech skills and practice design thinking.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
