Art is one of the first classes cast aside when budget constraints and testing concerns rear their ugly heads. My school doesn’t have an art teacher at all, and we are an objective-meeting machine, so there isn’t much time for art in the regular classroom. This saddens me because I feel that as educators, we need to teach the whole child.
Part of that child is a creative mind and artistic spirit. I hear teachers becoming frustrated with students when they are unable to look for different solutions, think outside the box, or develop interesting writing. Those are exactly the skills that a creative classroom can teach. Teaching for Artistic Behavior (TAB) highlights how the skills needed for art translate to the 21st century classroom. Are critical thinking skills, problem solving, research, inquiry, and collaboration an issue? Teach a child creativity and you’ve mastered them all. The best part? Kids like art. Plain and simple.
