Part 1:

This week has been very good, I feel that I am finally getting back into a rhythm and I feel less stressed. It is really nice to look at your planner, seeing the assignment, tests etc. slowly but surely getting less and you have a wonderful prospect of a vacation ahead. 

Part 2:

I really became aware of the fact that I really love that teaching has such a wide variety of methods and ways you can reach your learners. I love how diverse teaching can be and how fun you can make learning for your students if you put in the effort. 

Part 3:

1. I feel that the people who makes such a statement does not really have knowledge of the topic and perhaps not even how to apply it, thus making a statement like "arts integration is a waste of time". In the Foundation Phase I have experienced what art integration can do for learners. The purpose of integrating art with the work the learners do, is soulfully to better their understanding of concepts and to get them actively involved with the work they learn. By doing this learners get to experience the work not only in a fun and interactive way, but they also get to experience the concept art in a practical way, they encounter what art is all about in way they can relate to.

In my opinion art integration in the foundation phase is very important, learners in the foundation phase learn by doing, playing and the best way you can utilize their learning experience is to ensure that learning takes place in all areas of the classroom. By integrating art learners are having fun, getting a interactive and wholesome learning experience without them even being aware of the fact that school is taking place. 

2. Everything about study unit for was very interesting and insightful to me. I really enjoyed this study unit a lot and learned so much. I feel that this study unit will help me a lot in practice and really help a lot with becoming a better teacher and ensuring that my learner get the absolute best learning experience.
