By having the hands on experience helps with the practical activities helps to better understand the context of art that we learn in our lectures and the text book. It also help us to bring out our creative side because we can build on the demonstrations and activities and think out the box. The practical is like a stepping stone of allowing us to have that better understanding of art which will help us in the future with our own class and we will be able to facilitate creativity. 
What has been the most important personal realisation in the last few weeks in this unit? That art isn't just about drawing and painting it also includes dancing, miming, movement etc. There's more to art than we will think and get told. 
Why is it the most important? I find this is the most important because art is apart of our everyday life and it is a way that can help shape us into who are; for example, art can build on ones confidence and self esteem which has now shaped that person to be able to engage and communicate more with others. Art also help bring out that creative side of mind where we can come up with solutions which can be effective and outside the box. There are so many benefits that can come from art and having that realisation and understanding can help people be more successful in life and it is good for us teachers to implement art in our class; it'll be beneficial for our students.
