Reflection #15
I feel like I am headed in the right direction when it comes to integrating arts. I feel like I have learned so much and truly learned what art is. After this class, I feel like we have learned so many ways to integrate arts into our future classrooms. There truly is no excuse for not using artsin the classroom. I am also thankful for all of the resources that I now have. I didn't realize all of the good websites and material that are out there. I also want to continue to have an even better attitude about using arts and taking the time to do them even though sometimes I will probably feel like I don't have time. I also am now interested in learning even more about the arts and how to integrate them into the classroom. I think it will be fun to actually have something that I am going to teach in the future and being able to use arts in the lesson. Looking back at the beginning of the semester I feel like I have truly changed when it comes to my attitude about the arts. I have never considered myself an artsy person, but after this class I realized that everybody can and should integrate arts.

Reflection #14
Arts Integration in Teaching.
I believe that I have really changed over the semester. Before this class I thought of art as coloring or drawing pictures. Maybe a little art project before a holiday or something. Now my views have really changed when it comes to art. I feel like art is important! I now see art as visual arts, music, drama, and dance. I think that these things are so much fun and so different from what I viewed art as. Seeing the projects we did in class and also seeing example in class, really made my brain start working differently and seeing what could be done in the class. I also really enjoyed the videos, it was fun to see all of these things we had been taught in action. It was also neat to do these things in the classroom and to really see that they do work. Integrating art in to teaching is important and does help the students learn more. I really feel like this course will make all of use better future teachers.
