What are the characteristics of an ideal student?

Artful Thinking explicitly defines several habits of

thought that are fundamental to critical thinking

and then engages students in applying those

habits within specific subject areas.

Research conducted by Arts Integration Solutions:

• Behavior issues are greatly reduced

• Student improvement is more rapid at Arts Integration schools

• Students in Arts Integration classrooms test from 7% to 15% higher in all tested subjects, regardless of the demographic

Research as noted in Cornett’s Creating Meaning through the Arts:• In Minneapolis, MN Arts Integration schools

reported substantial academic gains for all students. Students in grades 3-5 made significant year over year gains in reading

• In Tucson, AZ Students at the Opening Minds Academy through the Arts have significantly higher scores in math, reading, and writing than non OMA students. The arts have closed the gap between minority and white students.

Research identifies a range of cognitive capacities engaged in and nurtured by learning in the arts, including focused perception, elaboration, problem solving, and creative thinking elements including fluency, originality, and abstractness of thought (Deasy, 2002).

• Learning through the arts levels the playing field.• The opportunity to be self-expressive and

successful in an artistic medium can often diffuse or transcend the sense of isolation and frustration students may feel when working with their disability in daily life.

• Arts Integration lessens the challenges of communication finding the right words or using language effectively.

Arts Integration is an APPROACH to TEACHING

in which students construct and demonstrate UNDERSTANDING

through an ART FORM. Students engage in a

CREATIVE PROCESS which CONNECTS an art form and another subject area

and meets EVOLVING OBJECTIVES in both.

“The goal of literature integration is to infuse artful literary products into literacy, science, math, social studies, and arts lessons-to immerse students in aesthetic experiences with words.”

-Claudia Cornett

This symbol represents the Deathly Hallows, three powerful objects that, if united, will give a person the ability to surpass human mortality and overcome death: the elder wand, the resurrection stone, the invisibility cloak.

Visual Art experiences develop literacy, numeracy, and writing skills. Drawing and painting reinforce motor skills and can also be a way of learning shapes, contrasts, boundaries, spatial relationships, size and other math concepts.

Visual art content and skills include studying:(1) the historical, social, and cultural role of art in

in our lives(2) Communication through art forms by creating,

exhibiting, and responding to art; and(3) Valuing art and developing aesthetic sensitivity

Drama develops higher order language and literacy skills as students act out historical or literary figures, they immerse themselves in a theme and can explore and learn about it in a personal way.

Creative drama as an art has one of the strongest research records for having an impact on academic learning.

Drama is life with the dull bits cut out. -Alfred Hitchcock

Ship Ahoy

Captains coming – salute and stand still for inspectionBoom crossing – students duckScrub the deck – students all scrub the floorClimb the rigging – all pretend to climb up sailPort – go left and load the cannonsStarboard – go right and look outBow - go to the front and all walk the plankStern - go to the back and all pull in the anchor

Chemical bonding: conductivity of water(Grotthuss mechanism)

Red: hydrogen atom (kneeling) Blue: oxygen atom (standing) with bent arms/legs: free electron pairs in the oxygen atom Stretched arms/legs: binding electron pairs.

The positive charge passes rapidly down from the right side of the line (H3O+) to the left (H+) by rearranging electron pairs and exchanging protons from one water molecule to the next.http://www.scienceinschool.org/2009/issue13/drama#sthash.ZOpiPbdp.dpuf

Dance is the art that puts the curriculum in motion.

Dance engages cognition within the context of compelling experiences that teach how to move one’s body with intention.

Dance is more than being physical. Dance is about creative problem solving-thinking on your feet.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A DANCER!

Curricular connections: The goal is not to create a “program of little dances.” Dance integration is mostly about directing creative movement explorations that cause students to learn to create whole compositions ordered into a beginning, middle, and end.

Interpreting Mythology Through Dance

How did the ancient Egyptians attempt to understand the unknown? How can one convey an idea or theme through abstract movement?

Music enhances language learning by teaching students about rhythm, pitch, and sound. Rhythm helps students learn rhymes and develop phonological awareness — components of reading.

Repetitive songs help teach academic facts to be memorized (like the multiplication tables) and help make the learning experience easier and more enjoyable.

Music fires up cognition and conveys unforgettable messages through powerful patterns. Thinking is coupled with emotion as music kindles vivid feelings and images.

Math: Use music notation to teach fractions and equivalent fractions (www.philtulga.com/resources.html)

Social Studies: Teach the history of the civil war through the evolution of drum corps

Language Arts: Create a playlist as a character would from a novel the students are reading

Science: Students are using observational skills to identify the differences in audio between live and studio sounds, discovering how recordings are engineered, mixed, and produced, and creating their own mixed and mastered audio track using a recited poem. Together, students are working through the engineering process of problem-solving, critical thinking, and designing new solutions through computerized elements while simultaneously listening, analyzing and producing sound using the elements of music.

Creative children look twice, listen for smells, dig deeper, build dream castles, get from behind locked doors, have a ball, plug in the sun, get into and out of deep water, sing in their own key.
