Blog #1: Art in the Curriculum

We have been learning about the importance of integrating art in the classroom and core curriculum. I strongly agree with the things I have been learning. I think art helps students broaden their minds to new ways of problem solving and helps them overall with their school work. I was lucky enough to be exposed to many different forms of art growing up and I believe it was to my advantage. I really can see how my exposure to the arts has helped me in my school work, social life, and problem solving. I am very much pro-arts in the classroom and I look forward to finding fun ways to incorporate it into my classroom.
