3 Acknowledgements The concepts and essential vocabulary for this curriculum are based on the previous Visual Arts Curriculum. The visuals arts faculty members developed the skills, assessments, rubrics, and sample lesson plans. Materials for the appendices were drawn from the developed by the curriculum committee, visual arts faculty members. This document would not have been completed so quickly without their efforts. Special thanks to the Visual Arts Curriculum Committee, Dr. Nancy Sullivan, Jill Cyr, Program Supervisor, and the Curriculum Advisory Board for their review and recommendations. 3

4 Curriculum Development & Design Process Cranston Public Schools Student Needs For 21 st Century Success National Standards State Standards Mission of Cranston Public Schools Strategic Plan of District Academic Expectations Defined by Cranston School Committee Mission and Goals Of Respective Schools Aligned to District s Mission and Goals Department, Academic Area, Vocational Area Curriculum Goals District CAB (Curriculum Advisory Board) Current Research In respective academic field Curriculum Design Mapping with four key elements Curriculum Committee For Development and Design Academic Area/Department Students Needs For 21 st Century Success o r F Connections By Dr. Nancy Sullivan The visual arts curricula, as all curricula in the Cranston Public Schools, must demonstrate connections to the system wide Mission and Academic Expectations, Civic, and Social Expectations, as well as Goals of the Strategic Plan. In addition, high school curricula must be connected to the high schools Mission Statements and the academic and social expectations as stated in current School Improvement Plans. The philosophical base for curriculum has moved from a traditional academic essentialist vision of teaching and learning to a more constructivist teaching and learning mode which undergirds standards driven (i.e. GSE driven and learned society driven) curriculum and instruction. Active learning about who we are as a nation, within the context of our global connections, is vital. In depth understanding, and retention of a sometimes quite complex knowledge set requires active learning and performance assessments. The visual arts department s philosophy informs how this department strives to create a learning environment. The state s visual arts framework standards (GSE s) inform the goals for each area of content (knowledge and skills) as can be seen in the curriculum maps. The department is moving toward greater use of performance assessments with use of district-wide rubrics, while sustaining some of the traditional departmental assessments that provide connections across the curriculum. We strive to maintain both horizontal and vertical articulation through the work that creates this curriculum guide, its implementation, and forms of evaluation. The development of curriculum is a process that involves and acknowledges the links between the mission and strategic goals of the school system and those of the schools and the department while the Rhode Island BEP drives curriculum design and delivery. Rhode Island Department of Education Regulations relative to student proficiencies drives our district s assessment system that provides multiple measures of students retention of knowledge and abilities to apply knowledge as well as develop skills informed by knowledge. However, the mission of the district, and the schools, is to design and deliver a broader based curriculum (using the state s GSE s as a guide). It is ultimately the delivered/taught /assessed curriculum, as designed by our professional teachers, that promotes and drives student learning. Curriculum, instruction, and assessment then, are recognized as partners in student learning. A curriculum guide, as this one, is a dynamic document not only because what is known is rapidly changing; but also because each teacher s knowledge set has both great similarities and some differences. It is our responsibility as educators to incorporate changes as they become known and to update our current knowledge base. It is each teacher s responsibility to use this guide as a guide to his or her practice. 4

5 CRANSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS VISION The Cranston Public Schools is an educational partnership, which promotes excellence through a standards-based curriculum. The success of this partnership derives from effective communication and appreciation of the diversity of its members. Our students attain high standards, rich their individual potential, make a smooth transition to careers, and become contributing members of society. GUIDING BELIEFS Every student is important All students can reach high standards (achieve proficiencies) Children are naturally curious and want to learn All students can reach their potential Students learn in a variety of ways Education is a partnership between and among students, parents, educators, and the community. On-Going, comprehensive professional development is an essential to a learning community. Students learn best in a caring and nurturing environment. All students and teachers deserve a safe and orderly environment. All members of the educational partnership deserve to be treated with dignity and respect within a setting that celebrates diversity. All students need to acquire knowledge and skills needed for success in their futures in the real world Members of the educational partnership are entitled to equitable resources to facilitate learning. Schools are responsive to societal trends affecting education. 5

6 MISSION STATEMENT It is the mission of the Cranston Public Schools, a partnership consisting of students, teachers, parents, and community members, to enable all students to develop their potential and reach high standards in preparation for a successful future. DISTRICT STRATEGIC GOALS STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT: Goal #1: Alls students in Cranston Public Schools will either meet or exceed the standards according to state assessments and classroom evaluations. PERSONALIZATION: Goal # 2: All students in Cranston Public Schools will meet the 2008 Annual Measurable Objectives of 84.1% in English Language Arts (ELA) at the elementary school level; 78.6% at the middle school level; and 75.0% at the high school level; and/or show personal Adequate Yearly Progress. Goal #3: All students in Cranston Public Schools will meet the 2008 Annual Measurable Objectives of 74.5% in Math at the elementary school level; 64.1% at the middle school level; and 63.2% at the high school level; and /or show personal Adequate Yearly Progress. Goal #4: All students will benefit from data-driven, research-based programs that address their diverse physical, social, and emotional needs; support student achievement; and create safe, drug-free, and more professionalized learning environments. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: Goal # 5: Teachers will participate in high quality professional development that supports both individual school plans and the district strategic plan and this professional development will be curriculum focused, research based, and designed to improve the quality of instruction, student learning and achievement. 6

7 ASSET PROTECTION: Goal #6: All facilities and physical environments will be safe, comfortable, and appropriate for the varied academic learning needs of students, as well as the instructional needs of all professional staff. COMMENTS ON STRATEGIC GOALS Action Steps for successfully meeting the above strategic goals are presented in the Strategic Plan document for The skills and assessment sections of this curriculum guide and the instructional materials appendix strive to meet goals 1, 2, and 3. Achieve of goals 2 and 3 are part of the classroom implementation of this curriculum. Use of common rubrics, analysis of department-wide assessments, including CT s and CCA s, and the NECAP examination provide the means to accomplish a subsidiary goal of developing a comprehensive system of reporting student progress. Full implementation of these goals will also involve much that is outside the scope of this curriculum guide. STATEMENT OF EXPECTATIONS The Cranston High Schools community of faculty, staff, students, parents, and residents believe that in order to fulfill its mission of excellence and equity in education, we must embody the ideals of secondary education in the 21 st Century. To that end, we will work together to create a safe, nurturing and stimulating learning environment. Students will become skillful learners and independent thinkers who contribute in many ways to our ever-changing world. We recognize the need for a variety of learning experiences that extend beyond the classroom and promote individual responsibility and respectful interaction. By achieving goals and overcoming adversity, students will be encouraged to reach their potential, achieve the district s academic expectations, and be prepared to assume meaningful roles in society. 7

9 Note on Expectations: Alignment of these expectations may be found in the curriculum maps section (within the curriculum maps), the assessments used in the course. These expectations are also aligned to the Rhode Island GSE s. ART DEPARTMENT PHILOSOPHY The Art Education curriculum has been developed to provide all students with a comprehensive sequential education in the visual arts through the study of art production, art appreciation, art criticism and aesthetics. Through these experiences students will learn where ideas come from, and how ideas can be developed and transformed. Reflection, both ongoing and summative, will be an essential part of the creative process and will allow students to evaluate their own growth in their creative endeavors. Engagement in these experiences will enable them to recognize the role of art as integral to the continual pursuit of knowledge and its application to everyday life. It is the belief of the Art Educators of Cranston Public Schools that quality visual arts education is a fundamental component to any complete elementary, middle and senior high education and has the potential to: Enhances cognitive, affective and psychomotor development. Encourage individuality and divergent thinking through problem solving and risk taking. Expand creativity and effective non-verbal communication. Foster and appreciation of cultural diversity, heritage, history and disciplines. Develop a respect for the uniqueness and creativity of themselves and others. Provide a lasting appreciation of art forms experienced as an active participant and as an audience. Provide a basic for personal growth. Bring meaning of the role of the arts in cultures and societies, and in people s daily lives. Convey the important contributions of the arts and artists to societies and cultures, past and present. Offer a foundation for the skills necessary to pursue one of the careers in the arts. Art educators work in concert to provide students with an equal opportunity for a substantive, comprehensive and sequential education in the visual arts. Through a variety of instructional strategies and assessment tools, all students learn how to make art, appreciate art, assess art and relate art to their everyday life. Not all students will become artist. However, a quality art education will provide every graduate with the knowledge, skills and values to become a creative worker and lifelong learner. 9

10 Overview This curriculum guide for visual arts is issued in response to the social studies frameworks issued by the Rhode Island Department of Elementary and Secondary Education in (date). The body of this course curriculum (or curriculum revision) is keyed to the learning standards and grade span expectations developed by the state. Since the last curriculum revision in the Visual Arts Department, our School District Committee has rewritten our mission statement, developed academic and social expectations, and adopted district wide rubrics for learning across the high schools. These changes have been incorporated into this document, as well as supplemental material on multiple intelligences, instructional strategies, our new assessment system, web sites, museums, and interdisciplinary resources. These materials and resources enhance both the curriculum and the instructional strategies, as well as the assessment system (assessment of proficiencies) for graduation. 10
