Teachers and students already enrolled in CAP know the excitement of experiencing music, art, dance and drama in the classroom, the thrill of visiting museums and the joys of attending live performances of music and dance in a professional theater… all integrated into their studies of history and global cultures.

Now, via this website, CAP provides expanded resources for teaching and learning social studies through the arts, by…

• offering Web-based lesson plans that expand upon the experiences of CAP artists in the classroom, visits to museums and performances at Symphony Space;

• encouraging teachers and students to explore the wealth of arts-related resources available on the internet and in their own school libraries, as exciting tools for research and learning;

• directing and guiding users (teachers and students) to relevant culture- and curriculum-specific arts and education resources on the internet;

• going beyond the hard-copy resource materials already provided for CAP teachers, and suggesting new opportunities for utilizing the arts in social studies curriculum;

• providing feedback opportunities to and from the CAP staff, by a simple click on the contact us link;
