Best, First Instruction in the Visual and Performing Arts
Best, First Instruction gives all students the best opportunity to learn standards-based, grade-level content and skills the first time they receive instruction. Best, First Instruction rests on four pillars:
- Building Relationships: BFI should deepen student agency through carins, positive, and authentic connections with peers and adults.
- Meeting the Needs of All Students: BFI should include accessible, equitable, and flexible instruction to meet the changing needs of diverse student populations.
- Creating Relevancy: BFI should engage in authentic, meaningful, real-world, and engaging work.
- Fostering Disciplinary Literacy: BFI should position students to work, think, talk, and plan as experts in the content world.
