The manual presents nine workshop formats in dance, music, visual arts, and drama designed to introduce special education teachers to the value of arts for the handicapped. Each workshop begins with a brief introduction, describes activities that may be adapted to the classroom and to special populations, and explains the activities' purposes and rationale. Information on materials, resources, and logistics for conducting the workshop is also provided. The workshop facilitator is also directed to ways in which to prepare for the advanced workshops. Glossaries and a list of resources are provided for visual arts, music, drama and dance. (CL)
