| THE
ARTS are important to our knowing, constructing knowledge, and
understanding the world. Art
activities enhance student learning and help students acquire basic
developmental skills. According
to research the arts help students to become better readers and problem

An increase in student
achievement is noted especially where arts infused teaching methods are part
of a school’s daily curriculum. Through
a study of the arts, students learn higher order thinking skills: critical
thinking, analyzing, and decision-making. The arts are motivating, engaging
and they assist students in learning appropriate and positive and
social/emotional skills!
