Importance of Fine Arts Classroom

Fine Arts is in the Encarta dictionary defines as "any form of art, for example, painting, sculpture, architecture, design, engraving, or what is a purely aesthetic point of view" (Encarta, 2004). While this definition is used in connection with the art in the natural world in terms of education, art is defined as the receiver is not strictly necessary to the learning process and is often discarded because of lack of time low, and learning potentialno money. Fine Art is regarded as painting and drawing, not the subject of investigation by a university researcher. Writer Victoria Jacobs said: "Art in the primary school are often separated from the CORE program, but as enrichment activities that are useful, but need not necessarily look offered" (Jacobs, 1999, pp. 2).

What is missing in the classrooms is the lack of teacher knowledge about the benefits of maintaining an "art-based curriculum. The teachers are verylittle understanding of the arts study as disciplines. Think of education as a professor of art-oriented projects to entertain or teach other disciplines "(Berghoff, 2003, p. 12). Fine Arts to push the boundaries of learning for pupils and encourage creative thinking and a deeper understanding of the disciplines of basic training, in which language arts, mathematics, natural sciences and social sciences. need all forms of visual art, theater, visual arts, including integrating dance,and music in their curricula, for art students with a motivational tool to unlock a deeper understanding of their training is imparted. Art education is the most powerful tool that teachers can present in class, because it allows students to reach their highest level of learning.

From 1977 to 1988 there were only three comprehensive reports that show the benefits of art, education. These three reports come to our senses, the arts, education andAmericans Panal (1977), we can use the arts in American children, to store sponsored by the American Council for the Arts (1988), and the best preserved, Civilization, the National Endowment for the Arts (1988). These three studies, the arts mentioned was very important for achieving a higher education for our students. Although these studies, the arts, have proved useful for the learning process, it was not until 2002, when an analysis of research links needed: LearningArts and Student Academic and Social Development "evidence of better learning and performance, and social benefits, when the arts were an integral part of the learning experiences provide the students being seriously hit by the legislature (Burns, 2003, p. 5). A study In this analysis, based on the teaching and learning of the keyboard to watch a class if the student values could be improved in spatial thinking. It 'was then compared to students whoEDP receive training which involved no element of art. It was found that learning through the arts, the assessment has improved on the basis of other academic subjects like mathematics and science, where spatial reasoning of the most commonly used (Swan-Hudkins 2003).

This study shows how a small change in how students are taught through the arts can have a major impact on their learning and understanding. Another study showed that participating students with a risk of one years in a partnershipArt-based program raised the standardized language arts test by an average of eight percentile, 16 Percentile are enrolled for two years. Students do not operate in such activity, do not show a change in the percentile (Swan-Hudkins, 2003). While this is a significant increase in risk students may have on this kind of learning to better understand, improve their use and their learning style of learning. The study of the most interesting in this case, analysisparticipating schools in Sampson, North Carolina, where in two consecutive years, rose in their standardized test scores in schools implemented, only that arts education in their school district (Swan-Hudkins, 2003). On art education should be integrated in all teaching plans for teachers on the day, because on the basis of these studies, students learn through the arts to improve their level of experimentation and learning.

Due to the high volume of attention from President Bush's No Child Left Behind Actis used in schools, arts education is lagging behind. Another reason for the lack of arts in the classroom Author Victor Jacobs said: "Given the shrinking budgets of school districts across the country, specialists in art and art programs have disappeared since many schools basic" (Jacobs, 1999, p. 4 ). Visual Arts, are considered non-teaching or extracurricular activities. Therefore, if there is a shortage of money in school districts, this argument can easily be reduced.Teachers need a way to integrate the art into the classroom, rather than be found on outdoor activities and Jacobs Education through art ... with half of the art with success and in a way that not only "thing" they must include in the curriculum "(Jacobs, 1999, p. 4).

Art can is opened the minds of students in a simple to read and write able to afford before. However, the point of teaching this material is notTeaching the art, but to learn through the arts. Jacobs says
Although the art education students need to engage in an act of artistic creation. For example, you could draw a picture, write a poem, a game in progress, or compose music to promote their understanding of concepts in other areas than the content of art. Education through the arts helps students to concepts of experience rather than just talk or read. This approach is to emphasize the educational theories into compliance, thatthe importance of the extent of multiple learning styles or intelligences. (Jacobs, 1999, p. 2)

Teaching the art can be found in many different ways depending on the interests of the master, but it's really the only way to improve the learning experience of students. At a time when budget cuts and the new laws of learning were established, teachers must be better informed and educated about the negative impact of the loss of "arts programs.
Three senior teacher at a publicElementary School from a case study of education through art. She said: "Our students have experienced cycles of the survey, where she learned the art and through art, and they need to see teachers of different disciplines to work together" (Berghoff, 2003, p. 2).

The study is based on a unity of teaching a history lesson on slavery and freedom in the arts. Mrs. Bixler Borgmann, had heard his students to the song "Swing Low, SweetChariot "in many different styles of music as a quartet of African-Americans, reggae, and Showtunes. He concludes that this important lesson in the song of the slaves at the time. Berghoff wife had played his students read the samples of literature - African American and write sentences, which sees an impact on them while they read. Then these propositions embedded in the poems of the group. Parr wife with two works of art as sweet as "Swing LowChariot "and let the students talk about art, by three questions:" What is happening in this picture? What you see, you ask? What do you think? "(Berghoff, 2003). She also had the" students focus on images, concepts and meanings that the artist wanted to portray. Parr wife thought it would teach students to discover hidden meanings in other school subjects (based on Berghoff, 2003). After school, students were asked what and howlearned from this teaching style.

Many students wrote in their diaries, which increased in parallel in different systems of signs their emotional involvement. It turned out about what learning in the class if they were thinking at home or at work. They noted that, although slavery is studying at other times, he never imagined that a slave or a reflection on the perspectives of slaves and fighting. (Berghoff, 2003)

TheStudents had learned more from this lesson because it is able to use all types of learning were at an angle that is taught only rarely used, through art. "Studies show that due to successful integration of the arts program using these elements to guide student learning and to assess growth and development (Swan-Hudkins, 2003). The students were able to learn abstract thought and the search the deeper meaning of education prepared by the teacher.

"The study ofArt has the potential of other services traditionally associated with art .... provide related services to art became more students skills related to critical and creative thinking, self-confidence, a willingness and ability to work with others to receive "(Jacobs, 1999, p. 4) .. With these advantages, the teachers can not afford to limit their artistic training in the classroom. teaching of art are the most important elements of learning and whether teachers are trying to build and strengthentheir students. Laboratory through art, rather than the art, the educational experience of students is conducted in a manner different to the standard style of learning to teach. Former California Governor Gray Davis, said: "arts education helps students develop creativity, self-realization, analytical skills, discipline, cross-cultural knowledge and appreciation of art," and that "students who develop artistic expression andAbility to be creative as problems in school to solve successfully and be better prepared for jobs and careers of the future "(California Art Studio, 2003, p. 1).

By exposing students to learning to teach students about the abstract logic and reason and understanding to help them to be what is not shown on the surface. Recent reports from the National Association of Arts Education (AAP) has with Governor Davis, when she declares, confirms: "The students in the evaluation of academic artSA verbal and math tests than those not enrolled in art classes (California Art Studio, 2003, p. 5). Attached is a copy of the test results of students in the arts and students with no arts courses.

What is the best way to get a lesson plan a further dimension of learning be strengthened to add that integration of the various levels of education? A company that provides a basis to focus on different learning styles are links for learning, [http://www.links-for-learning.com].The company understands the importance of integrating art into the classroom. Former Secretary of Education William Bennett wrote: "The arts are essential to education as reading, writing and arithmetic ... Music, dance, painting and theater are the key to unlocking the deep understanding of man and Implementation (Swann-Hudkins , 2002).

An example of the benefits of arts education is the teaching of a teacher who taught the doctrine of the water cycle byMovement and music. The students were on the water cycle in the traditional style of teaching, reading and introduced lectures. However, so that students understand fully the experience "as a snowflake, listened to the students in the Nutcracker Suite by Tchaikovsky (Waltz of the Snowflakes) and closed their eyes to see the snow flakes didactic session 's no way land. An important side effect of the dance that the exposure "to the dances to their foreign) (Students and help them understand and appreciate the differences in the society. Your mind is open to new ideas and a different perspective. This understanding helps to eliminate potential bias, students and the enrichment of our society "(Swan-Hudkins, 2003, p.17). As the band played the teacher asked them questions like" How is your country "and" What you see as you fall. The second time, listening to music studentscalled to action on the water cycle through movement and dance. Teachers should know, "a class that can dance, the students are empowered and involved in their education. In making its dance, students develop the conceptual thinking, not always verbally expressed" (Swan-Hudkins, 2003, p. 17).

With this exercise, the students were able to a part of the cycle, and not only with their ability to listen and try to understand intellectuallythis lesson. The teacher also had students write a poem with words that he is, then they, the snowflakes falling on the ground (Jacobs, 1999, p. 2). "The powers of the motivation of the art is important because the professor said," Wait a child half if not more than half of the battle of learning. When you register, you can go to learn "(Jacobs, 1999, p. 6). Teachers have access to all learning styles that can only boost motivationPowers.
Researchers at Harvard Hetland won and remarked: "The best hope for the arts in our schools is to justify what they are other people who can not do it" can (Swan-Hudkins, 2003, do p. 18). Teachers need better training to teach their students through the art of music, too. Without art, are the teachers who use the opportunities of their students their thought process as a whole, which offer fewer opportunities for full understanding. For EducationArt is the most powerful tool that teachers can bring to the classroom by students reach their highest level of learning.

With the lack of concentration in the arts outside the classroom, teachers can not afford to dance, theater include, visual arts, music, or in their curricula. Fine Arts Core Curriculum is the most important and constant companion. No child shall be left behind, and education through art is also theIdea.
