2. What meaning or inferences can you make based on what you see or know?
Are there clear objectives for arts learning that are addressed in a lesson that integrates art?
Arts learning objectives may be left unstated but if they are not present at all, this is not an example of arts integration.
Are there opportunities for students to communicate, reflect, explore, and collaborate on their learning in the arts and in other subjects?
It is important that both arts skills and artistic habits become a part of lesson planning. The arts provide excellent opportunities for students to incorporate the 4 C’s of the common core – Collaboration, Creativity, Communication and Critical Thinking, for deeper learning.
