Current through Reg. 49, No. 28; July 12, 2024
(a) Introduction.
(1) The fine arts incorporate the study of
				  dance, music, theatre, and the visual arts to offer unique experiences and
				  empower students to explore realities, relationships, and ideas. These
				  disciplines engage and motivate all students through active learning, critical
				  thinking, and innovative problem solving. The fine arts develop cognitive
				  functioning and increase student academic achievement, higher-order thinking,
				  communication, and collaboration skills, making the fine arts applicable to
				  college readiness, career opportunities, workplace environments, social skills,
				  and everyday life. Students develop aesthetic and cultural awareness through
				  exploration, leading to creative expression. Creativity, encouraged through the
				  study of the fine arts, is essential to nurture and develop the whole
				  child.
(2) Four basic
				  strands--foundations: observation and perception; creative expression;
				  historical and cultural relevance; and critical evaluation and
				  response--provide broad, unifying structures for organizing the knowledge and
				  skills students are expected to acquire. Each strand is of equal value and may
				  be presented in any order throughout the year. Students rely on personal
				  observations and perceptions, which are developed through increasing visual
				  literacy and sensitivity to surroundings, communities, memories, imaginings,
				  and life experiences, as sources for thinking about, planning, and creating
				  original artworks. Students communicate their thoughts and ideas with
				  innovation and creativity. Through art, students challenge their imaginations,
				  foster critical thinking, collaborate with others, and build reflective skills.
				  While exercising meaningful problem-solving skills, students develop the
				  lifelong ability to make informed judgments.
(3) Statements that contain the word
				  "including" reference content that must be mastered, while those containing the
				  phrase "such as" are intended as possible illustrative examples.

				  reading, writing, reproducing, and creating music, thus developing a student's
				  intellect. Through creative expression, students apply their music literacy and
				  the critical-thinking skills of music to sing, play, read, write, and/or move.
				  By experiencing musical periods and styles, students will understand the
				  relevance of music to history, culture, and the world, including the
				  relationship of music to other academic disciplines and the vocational
				  possibilities offered. Through critical listening, students analyze, evaluate,
				  and respond to music, developing criteria for making critical judgments and
				  informed choices.

				  understanding strand, students develop a perception of self, human
				  relationships, and the world using elements of drama and conventions of
				  theatre. Through the creative expression strand, students communicate in a
				  dramatic form, engage in artistic thinking, build positive self-concepts,
				  relate interpersonally, and integrate knowledge with other content areas in a
				  relevant manner. Through the historical and cultural relevance strand, students
				  increase their understanding of heritage and traditions in theatre and the
				  diversity of world cultures as expressed in theatre. Through the critical
				  evaluation and response strand, students engage in inquiry and dialogue, accept
				  constructive criticism, revise personal views to promote creative and critical
				  thinking, and develop the ability to appreciate and evaluate live
				  theatre.

				  evaluation and response--provide broad, unifying structures for organizing the
				  knowledge and skills students are expected to acquire. The foundation of music
				  literacy is fostered through reading, writing, reproducing, and creating music,
				  thus developing a student's intellect. Through creative expression, students
				  apply their music literacy and the critical-thinking skills of music to sing,
				  play, read, write, and/or move. By experiencing musical periods and styles,
				  students will understand the relevance of music to history, culture, and the
				  world, including the relationship of music to other academic disciplines and
				  the vocational possibilities offered. Through critical listening, students
				  analyze, evaluate, and respond to music, developing criteria for making
				  critical judgments and informed choices.

				  Introduction.
(1) The fine arts incorporate
				  the study of dance, music, theatre, and the visual arts to offer unique
				  experiences and empower students to explore realities, relationships, and
				  ideas. These disciplines engage and motivate all students through active
				  learning, critical thinking, and innovative problem solving. The fine arts
				  develop cognitive functioning and increase student academic achievement,
				  higher-order thinking, communication, and collaboration skills, making the fine
				  arts applicable to college readiness, career opportunities, workplace
				  environments, social skills, and everyday life. Students develop aesthetic and
				  cultural awareness through exploration, leading to creative expression.
				  Creativity, encouraged through the study of the fine arts, is essential to
				  nurture and develop the whole child.
(2) Four basic strands--foundations: inquiry
				  and understanding; creative expression; historical and cultural relevance; and
				  critical evaluation and response--provide broad, unifying structures for
				  organizing knowledge and skills students are expected to acquire. Through the
				  foundations: inquiry and understanding strand, students develop a perception of
				  self, human relationships, and the world using elements of drama and
				  conventions of theatre. Through the creative expression strand, students
				  communicate in a dramatic form, engage in artistic thinking, build positive
				  self-concepts, relate interpersonally, and integrate knowledge with other
				  content areas in a relevant manner. Through the historical and cultural
				  relevance strand, students increase their understanding of heritage and
				  traditions in theatre and the diversity of world cultures as expressed in
				  theatre. Through the critical evaluation and response strand, students engage
				  in inquiry and dialogue, accept constructive criticism, revise personal views
				  to promote creative and critical thinking, and develop the ability to
				  appreciate and evaluate live theatre.

(2) Four basic strands--foundations:
				  observation and perception; creative expression; historical and cultural
				  relevance; and critical evaluation and response--provide broad, unifying
				  structures for organizing the knowledge and skills students are expected to
				  acquire. Each strand is of equal value and may be presented in any order
				  throughout the year. Students rely on personal observations and perceptions,
				  which are developed through increasing visual literacy and sensitivity to
				  surroundings, communities, memories, imaginings, and life experiences, as
				  sources for thinking about, planning, and creating original artworks. Students
				  communicate their thoughts and ideas with innovation and creativity. Through
				  art, students challenge their imaginations, foster critical thinking,
				  collaborate with others, and build reflective skills. While exercising
				  meaningful problem-solving skills, students develop the lifelong ability to
				  make informed judgments.
