There is a stigma that is beginning to overturn that art isn't as important as these other common core fields, but that's just not true! Art has a connection to these fields and it's harder to avoid art than to include it!]]> 2021-05-04 21:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491843819 eam69610 https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491844216 Art Integration can look like a lot of things! Some examples that might come to mind are songs, dancing, painting, and drawing- but Art Integration can be so much more too! It can be paper making, Lego building, play writing, outfit designing, and room designing too!]]> 2021-05-04 21:53:43 UTC https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491844216 eam69610 https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491844768 Art Integration is important for many reasons! Incorporating arts in various formats helps students grow in common core areas like math and language! It inspires creativity and problem solving skills too! Art integration allows for children to connect with their emotions in a physical way as well. In addition to everything else Art Integration is FUN and makes the learning process more enjoyable for children as well! Especially when it's a particularly tough subject to understand. When art can be associated with it, the material has the opportunity to make a lasting impact. These are only a few of the reasons why Art Integration is important!]]> 2021-05-04 21:53:59 UTC https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491844768 eam69610 https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491846677 1) No matter what grade I end up teaching, Art Integration has a place in that grade level's education.
2) Art does not just belong in art or music rooms, but can and SHOULD be present in every classroom no matter the subject.
3) Valuing Art doesn't mean that arithmetic and language should be valued any less. Instead, these fields should work together and be integrated, not just kept separate. ]]> 2021-05-04 21:54:52 UTC https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491846677 eam69610 https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491848457 I loved the Stages of Drawing assignment! I loved going through work that my kids I've babysat and worked with made. It was also an assignment that was enjoyable, which is hard to say about a lot of end-of-year assignments!]]> 2021-05-04 21:55:44 UTC https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491848457 eam69610 https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491848886 In general, I really liked the unit over the right and left brain! Since I am a psychology major, it was cool to see the two field connect!]]> 2021-05-04 21:55:58 UTC https://padlet.com/eam69610/hmom3iojwy1hesle/wish/1491848886
