Preserved for archival purposes

The Chicago Guide for Teaching and Learning in the Arts serves as a road map to connect curriculum, instruction and assessment in dance, music, theatre, and visual art from pre-kindergarten to senior year of high school.

The Guide is conceived as a multi-functional document: a resource guide for teachers to access when looking to enhance their curriculum, and a platform from which to have a common dialogue about the essential learning happening in arts classrooms and environments throughout the city of Chicago.
