* The arts are Performance-based assessment
*The arts are content* “There is no such thing as doing the
nuts and bolts of reading in Kindergarten through 5th grade without coherently developing
knowledge in science, and history, and the arts…it is the deep foundation in rich knowledge and vocabulary depth
that allows you to access more complex text.”
* David Coleman, Common Core State Standards Author, President of the College
Board
* The Arts are now required to teach Literacy in grades 6-12.

Poets
April Rain Song by Langston Hughes
Let the rain kiss youLet the rain beat upon your head with silver
liquid dropsLet the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalkThe rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.
I, too, sing America by Langston Hughes
I, too, sing America. I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen When company comes,
But I laugh, And eat well,
And grow strong. Tomorrow, I'll be at the table
When company comes. Nobody'll dare Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,“ Then.
Besides, They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed— I, too, am America
