In This Edition:
- Featured Resource: SEL Standards Mapping Documents
- NCMA Educator Expo
- NCTAE Playwriting Workshop
- NAEF Grant Opportunity
- WIDA Workshop and Professional Learning Opportunities
- Job Openings
At the beginning of these documents, developed in collaboration with A+ Schools of North Carolina, you will find a short narrative of how SEL and your content area already connect, and how integrating purposeful SEL support will strengthen your students’ grasp of the content. The document then provides Activities and Practices for use in your classroom. These activity suggestions have been tailored to integrating the instruction of a core competency within your content area. The instructional practices are ways that we as educators embed those core competencies in how we speak, teach, and run our classrooms. At the end of this document you will find a quick reference crosswalk between the CASEL Core Competencies and the NC Standard Course of Study. You will find that you can easily locate places in your curriculum where you can infuse your instruction with the core competencies, because they are already present in the standard course of study. However, by integrating these competencies intentionally into our content, we engage our students more deeply while educating the whole child.

Join us in a celebration of pure imagination! We invite educators to get a sneak peek of the newly transformed East and West buildings. The reinstalled galleries offer a more dynamic experience of the arts for all through newly conceived thematic and interpretive galleries, major loans from North Carolina and from national and international museums, and new site-specific commissioned works alongside visitor favorites presented in new ways. Educators can enjoy hors d’oeuvres, beverages (including two drink tickets for beer and wine), and desserts while engaging with our extended learning community. This event is free and open to educators of all levels and disciplines as well as teaching artists and others interested in learning through the arts. Expo tickets are available on the hour at 4, 5, and 6 pm to allow educators to select an entry time that fits their schedule. Timed entry grants access to the West Building first with access to the East Building beginning at 5 pm. More info.

North Carolina's Vision for Comprehensive Arts Education
In today's globally competitive world, innovative thinking and creativity are essential for all school children. High quality, standards-based instruction in the arts develops these skills and effectively engages, retains, and prepares future-ready students for graduation and success in an entrepreneurial economy. Dance, music, theatre arts, and visual arts, taught by licensed arts educators and integrated throughout the curriculum, are critical to North Carolina's 21st century education.
