"The kindergarten through eighth grade visual art educators used this grant to investigate the connection between visual arts language and the Common Core State Standards’ language. Each of the nine visual art educators focused on one grade level, examining the relationship the new Common Core Language Arts and Mathematics standards have to the current California Visual Arts Standards and our Mill Valley K-8 art curriculum. We worked collectively and independently to make new connections and reinforce current lessons to best reflect the new direction of Common Core. We thank the Mill Valley School District and KIDDO! for allowing us the opportunity to share such meaningful curriculum."
