Introducing Artademics
Raindance Arts Academy will be introducing our signature model called Artademics. Artademics isn’t just about teaching art – it’s about teaching through the arts. Artademics fuses international arts exposure with core learning - blending rigorous academic instruction with deep artistic exploration, ensuring students express themselves with creative confidence in every subject, every day.
What will Artademics look like in practice?
- Math Through Movement & Design: Students act out multiplication patterns using choreographed steps
- Literacy Through Storytelling & Scriptwriting: First graders write and perform original puppet plays based on Phonics patterns; Fifth graders adapt myths into screenplays and shoot a short film
- Science Through Set Creation & Special Effects: Students explore ecosystems by designing habitats as 3D theater backdrops
- Social Studies Through Roleplay & Filmmaking: Historical events are reimagined as mock newscasts or mini documentaries
Most schools integrate arts as enrichment – Raindance Arts Academy will use arts as the foundation of learning.
