This book invites readers to consider the possibilities for learning and growth when artists and arts educators come into a classroom and work with teachers to engage students in drama, dance, visual art, music, and media arts. It is a nuts-and-bolts guide to arts integration, across the curriculum in grades K-12, describing how students, teachers, and artists get started with arts integration, work through classroom curriculum involving the arts, and go beyond the typical unit to engage in the arts throughout the school year. The framework is based on six years of arts integration in the Chicago Arts Partnerships in Education (CAPE). Renaissance in the Classroom: *fully explains the planning, implementation, and assessment processes in arts integration; *frames arts integration in the larger context of curriculum integration, problem-based learning, and the multiple intelligences; *provides the theoretical frameworks that connect standards-based instruction to innovative teaching and learning, and embeds arts education in the larger issue of whole school improvement; *blends a description of the arts integration process with personal stories, anecdotes, and impressions of those involved, with a wealth of examples from diverse cultural backgrounds; *tells the stories of arts integration from the classroom to the school level and introduces the dynamics of arts partnerships in communities that connect arts organizations, schools, and neighborhoods; *offers a variety of resources for engaging the arts--either as an individual teacher or within a partnership; and *includes a color insert that illustrates the work teachers, students, and artists have done in arts integration schools and an extensive appendix of tools, instruments, Web site, contacts, and curriculum ideas for immediate use. Of primary interest to K-12 classroom teachers, arts specialists, and visiting artists who work with young people in schools or community arts organizations, this book is also highly relevant and useful for policymakers, arts partnerships, administrators, and parents.

Page vi

The cover of this book shows children's self-portrait collages against a backdrop of a Renaissance map of the New World. We designed a cover image that would connect: the present with the future and the past, personal stories with social histories, and the self with the world. These are precisely the kinds of connections our students can make through the vehicle of arts integration.
We thank the students of Telpochcalli School: Edith Rivera, Diego Salgado and Rodolfo Castro, and artist/educator Guillermo Delgado, for creating such beautiful work and helping us to bring these ideas to life. Photo of art work: Scott Shigley

Dedication

This book is dedicated to the loving memory of Rene Townsend, an artist and an educator who, by her life's example, constantly reminded us of our power to erase false divisionsbetween teaching and learning, between children and adults, between hearts and minds. A true artist and a true teacher, a live wire and a steady rock, she had a profound talent for sweetly challenging and warmly embracing at the same time. Everyone who knew herstudents, teachers, parents, artists, friendsfelt graced by her special attention, only to discover later that her spirit was so large that this personal, "exclusive" relationship included us all.

Not long before we lost her, the DuSable Museum of African American History honored Rene by commissioning her sculpture of the Amistad slave ship uprising. Rene chose to represent this historic struggle for freedom through an image of the children of the Amistadchildren who survived captivity and grew up to make lives of their own choosing. The sculpture was cast directly from the bodies of students at Charles S. Brownell Elementary School. Their work with Rene connected them to their own history, their own freedom, and their own potential. It is in that spirit that this book is launched.
