In my opinion art is most definitely not a waste of time or effort in the Foundation Phase. Art has the beauty of expressing the uniqueness of each child and lets them have fun whilst doing so. I feel that each child has to find themselves in their own way and art can help them do that by themselves and that goes for creating art, singing, making music or dancing. Art serves as a purpose to help learners learn new things in a fun and fascinating way. Using songs to learn new mathematics concepts to your class will help them understand and remember what they learned at the end of the lesson as that was another fun way of learning. 

Study unit 4 provided a lot of fascinating and useful material that I could someday use to teach children art in my classroom. For me, it was about the benefits of the integrated method and how art integration creates a great learning environment and overall growth.

 What I found difficult with this learning unit was that I had to incorporate a lot of information and everything was important so I had to concentrate and incorporate it all at once.
