"Art has the rule in education of helping become like themselves instead of more like everyone else." -Sydney Gurewitz Clemens Visual arts are highly motivating for all students because they allow so much freedom of choice. One of my students' favorite activities in class is creating art projects. This gives them the opportunity to use their imaginations and express themselves. They enjoy the hands-on activities and a chance to get their "hands dirty!" Our kids have experienced uncertain times and this helps them to relax, unwind and create something. Providing these activities is more important than ever
