New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Little Steven and the
Disciples of Soul will show solidarity with and say thank you to hard-working teachers across North
America with a landmark headline tour introducing TeachRock, the Rock and Roll Forever Foundation's free, multimedia, K-12 interdisciplinary curriculum which meets prevailing standards in English Language Arts, Social Studies/History, the Fine and Performing Arts, and also includes STEAM and advisory material. The "Soulfire Teacher Appreciation Tour 2018" begins October 18 at The Kirby Center in Wilkes Barre, PA and then continues into December. All shows on sale now. For complete details and tickets, please visit www.littlesteven.com/on-tour.
The "Soulfire Teacher Appreciation Tour 2018" concerts are free for educators of all types (and a guest) - teachers are invited to sign up at teachrock.org/tour. Each show on the tour will also see
Little Steven and his TeachRock staff hosting free professional development workshops designed to engage educators with techniques and content through which they can comfortably use music to inspire students, even if they've never touched an instrument. In many locations, the workshop will also count towards continuing education hours and license renewal.
The
Little Steven and the
Disciples of Soul Teacher Appreciation Tour Professional Development
Experience will offer an introduction to the Teachrock.org curriculum, and include material suitable for K-12 teachers of all disciplines, interdisciplinary best practices, and group activities. In addition, the one-hour workshops will see a personal visit from
Little Steven, with attendees also receiving a teacher-only edition "Teacher Appreciation Tour" t-shirt, a certificate of attendance, and tickets for the educator and a guest to that evening's
Little Steven and the
Disciples of Soul concert.
"This is a little different than the professional development experience you may be used to," says
Little Steven. "This is a rock 'n' roll experience."
Little Steven unveiled the "Soulfire Teacher Appreciation Tour 2018" earlier this week with a personal video announcement, streaming now at the official TeachRock YouTube channel.
