He has been the recipient of The Access Grant from The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Sillau served as a Teaching Artist Fellow for VSA, an affiliate of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, he conducts arts theater residencies in self-contained special education classrooms as well as\u00a0 professional development for educators.

Every lesson creates multiple opportunities for students to express what they have learned, represent what they know, and engage in their learning. If these principals are utilized, I find a student is more actively engaged.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>Examples of his lesson plans are below<\/p>\n<p>Below are examples of programs for specific groups of students:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/FS_Lesson_11.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Lesson Plan 1 &#8211; Exploring Your Abilities (5 Day)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/FS_Lesson_21.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Lesson Plan 2 &#8211; Exploring Your Abilities (1 Day)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/FS_Lesson_31.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Lesson Plan 3 &#8211;\u00a0Anansi the Spider<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/FS_Lesson_41.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Lesson Plan 4 &#8211;\u00a0Staff Development: Theatre in the Classroom<\/p>\n<h1><strong>Handouts from past Teacher Professional Development <\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tico-and-the-Golden-Wings.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Tico and the Golden Wings<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/TICO-in-spanish.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0TICO in Spanish<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/UDL-With-Tico-Activities-Aug-2013-1.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0UDL With Tico Activities<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Loesl-Communication-Art-Board.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Loesl Communication Art Board<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Bibliography-DC-2013-1.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"pdf_icon\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fransillau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/pdf_icon1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><\/a>\u00a0Bibliography<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fran&#8217;s Arts Education Philosophy at a Glance Over the past two decades, Fran Sillau has worked as a teaching artist reaching over two million students in twenty-five states and Washington, D.C.
