WHY DO CHILDREN NEED ART?

Art develops the child’s creativity and
artistic expression,
his cultural and visual literacy which is
most needed in the 21st century, which
is a multi-media world.

Art develops the child’s multiple

intelligences:
SPATIAL INTELLIGENCE - when he
imagines and translates his thoughts,
feelings into visuals: drawings,&
paintings
KINAESTHETIC INTELLIGENCE – when he
uses his eyes, hands, arms, body to carve,
shape, weave, saw, construct, mix, blend.

LOGICAL & VERBAL INTELLIGENCE – when he

connects the art he sees to the history of the
Philippines and the world.
When he can appreciate, assess and talk
about the artistic merits of his work and the
work of others.

Accept work of everyone and DISPLAY all works.

3. encourages the CREATIVITY of the child;

allow questions, mistakes, trial & errror,

“IMAGINATION is greater than

KNOWLEDGE!”

We are preparing our STUDENTS

for the FUTURE, which we can only
IMAGINE…so we cannot teach only
the way we were taught.

We must KEEP ON LEARNING…
