Infusing the Arts in the Common Core
The Common Core Common Core Speaking and Listening (S.L. 2, S.L. 5) goals address that students use a variety of multimedia skills in reading, speaking, and listening. It is through performance, production, and participation in innovative and creative multi-media projects using art and music that those goals are accomplished. Transliteracy is in part how we live.
It begins with LITERACY.
It only makes sense that the arts are embedded in the Common Core. The use of tech toys, simple recording and drawing apps will be presented, as well as how to organize a system of sharing and assessment. The CC speaking and listening standards 2 and 5 directly have the students use visual and sound through diverse media and formats.
Literacy is the backbone of innovative and creative multimedia projects. A systematic approach of visual and auditory arts through the use of digital storytelling will enhance the common core goals within your classroom and district using the arts as the glue.
It's all about.....ME!
Make connections that the students can FEEL and SEE.
