Most teaching strategies only work in one subject. And they show it.

You've been to the PD sessions. You took notes. You walked out genuinely excited. And then you got back to your classroom, tried it once, and... nothing moved.

Students were still passive. The strategy that worked in the demo didn't translate to your actual content. So you shelved it.

Sound familiar?

These 7 routines were built for exactly this.

7 routines that bridge thinking skills to your actual lessons.

This quick workshop outlines 7 effective artful thinking routines you can use with your students to see remarkable increases in problem-solving, critical thinking, and creative application.

These are classroom-tested arts integration strategies, proven to engage students and increase academic success.

Here's what the workshop gives you:

  • Specific steps for bridging the strategies to your lessons Save time. Make connections. No full lesson redesign required.
  • Examples for any grade level and any content area, ready in minutes ELA, Math, Science, Social Studies, and the arts. Elementary through high school.
  • Routines that build creative mindsets, not just one-time engagement Students learn to think across topics and deepen connections. Not just respond to a prompt.

Everything you need to use these strategies by Monday.

Real results. Real classrooms.

★★★★★
Used it in her classroom the very next day.

"I found everything in this workshop useful and helpful. I like the idea of using 'I see, I think, I wonder' because it provides a structure for students to observe, make inferences, and ask thoughtful questions. This is something I can absolutely use in my classroom right away."

★★★★★
Found clear applications for her ESL students across multiple proficiency levels.

"I was impressed with the activities that I was not familiar with. I downloaded the Workbook and plan to use it in teaching my TESOL/ESL classes. These routines work across disciplines, and I can see clear applications for English language learners at multiple proficiency levels."

★★★★★
Immediately pictured how to adapt these for her own class.

"I love the extensions for both of these strategies and can't wait to try them out with my students. Seeing the tiered examples for different grade levels made it so easy to picture exactly how I'd adapt these for my own class."

Not all thinking strategies are built the same.

Most PD gives you a strategy or two that works in one subject, for one type of task. These routines were designed to do something different.

❌ Generic Strategies
Designed for one subject. Doesn't transfer to the rest of your day
Produces surface-level responses, not genuine thinking
Engages some students, not all
Doesn't build habits of mind that carry across topics
Requires significant prep to adapt for your content
✅ Artful Thinking Routines
Work in any subject area, any grade level. Same routine, new context
Pushes students toward evidence-based, original thinking
Structured so every student has a meaningful way to participate
Builds creative mindsets and deepens cross-topic connections over time
Usable within minutes. No full lesson overhaul needed
