Arts organization training
The document summarizes a presentation about arts education in Santa Clara County and the Common Core State Standards. It provides data from a survey of school districts that found most include the arts in their mission but have limited staffing and funding for arts programs. It also outlines how the Common Core emphasizes skills like citing evidence, analyzing texts, and integrating media that are relevant to arts instruction. Finally, it notes several direct and implied references to the arts in the Common Core standards for reading, writing, speaking, and language.

- 13. States that haveadopted the Common Core State Standards
- 14. The focus ofthe CCSS is to ensure students are: • Meeting college & work expectations • Prepared to succeed in a global economy & society • Provided with rigorous content and applications of higher knowledge through higher order thinking skills
- 15. What are thebenefits of the CCSS? • Internationally benchmarked • Student expectations are clear to parents, teachers, and the general public • Allows for collaboration with other states on best practices, instructional materials, and professional development • Reduces costs to the state
- 16.
- 17. Areas of Emphasis •Provide an integrated model of literacy • Focus on text complexity • Address reading & writing across the curriculum • Emphasize analysis of informational text • Focus on writing arguments and drawing evidence from sources • Emphasize participating in collaborative conversation • Integrate media sources across standards
- 22. With prompting andsupport, ask and answer questions about key K details in a text. 1 Ask and answer questions about key details in a text. Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and 2 how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text. 3 Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers. 4 Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.
- 23. 5 Quote accuratelyfrom a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. 6 Cite textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. 7 Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. 8 Cite the textual evidence that most strongly supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
- 24. Cite strong andthorough textual evidence to support analysis of 9- what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the 10 text. Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of 11- what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the 12 text, including determining where the text leaves matters uncertain.
- 25. What’s the Shift? Build Focus on Knowledge in Analysis & the Other Evidence Disciplines Increase Text Expand Complexity Vocabulary Balance Literacy & 21st Century Informational Skills Text
- 26. The 3 BigBuckets Narrative Informative/ Opinion(K-5) Explanatory Argument(6-12)
- 27. Arts References inCommon Core Standards for Reading • If definition of text includes non-print texts (dance, media arts, music, or theatre works)… • …then all reading standards refer to arts- based content or investigation.
- 28. Reading a workof drama: • RL.5.3: Compare and contrast two or more characters, settings or events in a story or drama, drawing on specific details in the text (e.g., how characters interact.) Using songs in instruction: • RL.2.4: Describe how words and phrases (e.g., regular beats, alliteration, rhymes, repeated lines) supply rhythm and meaning in a story, poem, or song. Comparing the same work in different media: • RL.6.7: Compare and contrast the experience of reading a story, drama, or poem to listening to or viewing an audio, video, or live version of the text, including contrasting what they “see” and “hear” when reading the text to what they perceive when they listen or watch. Analyzing and interpreting images: • RI.K.7: With prompting and support, describe the relationship between illustrations and the text in which they appear. Multimedia references: • RI.7.7: Compare and contrast a text to an audio, video, or multimedia version of the text, analyzing each medium’s portrayal of the subject.
- 29. Arts References inCommon Core Standards for Writing • Eight arts links in 100 standards • Visual art/drawing links found in the standards for the lower grades • W.K.2: Use a combination of drawing, writing, and dictating to compose informative/explanatory texts in which they name what they are writing about and supply some information about the topic. • Media Arts/multimedia links: • W.8.2.a: Introduce a topic clearly, previewing what is to follow; organize ideas, concepts, and information into broader categories; include formatting, graphics (e.g., charts, tables) and multimedia when useful to aiding comprehension.
- 30. Arts References inCommon Core Standards for Speaking and Listening • 16 arts links in 60 standards • Most references are related to standard #5: Make strategic use of digital media and visual displays of data to express information and enhance understanding of presentations
- 31. Standard 5: Makestrategic use of digital media and digital displays of data to express information and enhance understanding of presentations • SL.K.5: Add drawings or other visual displays to descriptions as desired to provide additional detail. • SL.2.5: Create audio recordings of stories or poems; add drawings or other visual displays to stories or recounts of experiences when appropriate to clarify ideas, thoughts, and feelings • SL.5.5: Include multimedia components (e.g., graphics, sound) and visual displays in presentations when appropriate to enhance the development of main ideas or themes. • SL.8.5: Integrate multimedia and visual displays into presentations to clarify information, strengthen claims and evidence, and add interest. • SL.11-12.5: Make strategic use of digital media (e.g., textual, graphical, audio, visual, and interactive elements) in presentations to enhance understanding of findings, reasoning, and evidence and to add interest.
- 32. Arts References in Common Core Standards for Language • The language standards contain one direct arts reference in standard L.5.3: Compare and contrast the varieties of English (e.g., dialects, registers) used in stories, dramas, or poems
- 33. CCSS Implications forVAPA? • Follow rules for collegial discussions (1.a) • Pose and respond to specific questions with elaboration and detail (1.b) • Review key ideas expressed (1.c) • Interpret information presented in diverse media & formats and explain how it contributes to a topic, text or issue under study (2)
- 34. CCSS Implications forVAPA? • 6th-12th grade writing has three main focus areas – argument, explanatory, narrative • Infuse the arts with discussion – standards in each grade level (come to discussions prepared) • Have students elaborate on the remarks of others (listening/speaking) • Use of domain-specific words and phrases

Editor's Notes
- #13 Notes:The CCS are not National Standards – they are common standards that were developed by the Council of Chief State School Officers and the National Governors Association. Work began on the standards in the fall of 2009. The work began with the development of the College and Career Standards so that all future standard development would keep this end goal in mind. It is amazing that the standards were developed so quickly.
- #14Â 45 states and two territories have adopted the CCSS
- #15Â Notes:One of the main focuses of the Obama administration is that students will be college and career ready when they exit high school.This will also likely be one of the main goals of the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) in the coming years.
- #16Â Notes:Reviewers of the CCS have found them to be clearly stated so that all stakeholders can understand them.In the past, there was little basis for collaboration when states each had their own standards. The CCS allows California to work with other states and have a common element for dialogue about best practices, instructional materials, pedagogy and professional development. Potentially, this could create common instructional materials between states, possibly reducing the costs of development of instructional materials.
- #26Â Intent: Transition from Structure and Content of Standards to the shift created by the standards
- #27 INTENT: Provide visual of 3 categories, or big buckets, of text types. Everything we write is either an opinion/argument, explanation/information, and/or a narrative. Talking Points/Examples:Opinion: used for persuasion can be less formal in tone may only include one viewpiont.Argument: used for persuasion change a reader’s point of view includes opposing point(s) of view bring about some actionInformational/Explanatory: used for clarification to increase the readers knowledge of the subject to enable understanding to enhance comprehensionNarrative: conveys experience, either real or imaginary. History: students write about individuals Science: students write narrative descriptions of scientists, events, etc.
