Social Justice Project ReportThis artifact is connected to application of content because this project This project will cover methods and ideas for general educators to implement into their classroom to provide a safe and proficient learning space for all. Students benefit from increased art opportunities in their classrooms, leading to enhanced skill development and self-worth. We are focusing on the importance of art in classrooms for the success of students with special needs.
How can we educate teachers about the benefits of implementing art into the classroom? As an art educator it’s easy to see the benefits and excitement that art brings into the classroom, and I would love to share that experience with other educators. Focusing on early child development, we have shown the benefits of having an inclusive art classroom, bringing everyone together to share an experience. Brochures will be passed around the elementary schools to the teachers reminding them how important it is to include art curriculum in an elementary level. We will highlight the importance and impact it has on students of special needs focusing on ADD, ADHD, and other needs. Hoping that this will impact teachers desires to include art in the classroom, we will see a brighter change in the inclusiveness of a social justice classroom. Proven practices and strategies demonstrate how art in early development stages can be effective positively. The purpose of the study researched was to engage children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in the classroom. Creating a sensitive way to explore the children’s subjective well‐being.
