Cultural arts interactive assemblies are funded by the LPES PTA. The interactive assemblies will engage all learners through multi-sensory experiences and active participation. Lessons are based upon and aligned with the NC ELA Standard Course of Study and NC Essential Standards for Dance. The movement activities will encourage students to “dance the story” while learning vocabulary, phonics and reading comprehension strategies. “Learning through Stories in Motion” will give students of all abilities the opportunity to connect literacy skills with dance and movement.
