Session Title: Get the Picture! Using Visual Arts and
Theatre to Prompt Imagination, Critical Thinking and
Writing Skills
Session Description: Tap into your students’ natural
connection to their imaginations! This interactive workshop
uses visual art and theatre games as a leaping off point
into creative writing. The time-tested tenets of journalism
state that every good article should answer readers’
questions regarding who, what, when, where and why. This
workshop will encourage the use of these same paths of
inquiry to expand the perceptions that can add dimension,
honesty, and interest to their writing.
Working in groups, participants will approach visual art
as a theatre artist and ask questions about character,
motivation, idiosyncrasies, history, action, set, and visceral
reaction. The exercises used work well with visual images
pulled from textbooks, newspapers or magazines, and the
internet. Techniques used are adaptable to any grade level
and can be employed for small or large group work and for
individual students.
Packets outlining the theatre techniques employed and
suggestions for the classroom will be available so that
participants can join in fun rather than feel the need to take
notes during the session.

Officer, talking his way through the curriculum while his
students smiled, took a few notes to pass the time...and
went to a better place in their minds. Ron’s was the active
role, and his students were relegated to a much more
passive part in the proceedings. As he completed the
research for his books, he has also discovered what works
in classrooms when it comes to shifting students from
passive to active mode. In this fast-paced keynote session,
Ron will model practical strategies for getting students off
the bench and into the game as they become more directly
involved in the learning process. Get ready to move,
