These instructional materials were created by a team of Arkansas classroom teachers and teaching artists through a partnership between the Arkansas Department of Education, the Arkansas Arts Council, and Arkansans for the Arts. Many thanks to the team: Jeremy Carter, Leandria J. Smith, Mary Gillihan, Jenny Hainen, Sheldon Harden, Dr. I. J. Routen, Justin Cook, April Shelby, and Kristen Predl.  The modules were inspired by the Model Cornerstone Assessments of the National Core Arts Standards.
