LSKM 221 has taught me alot about Art and how to effectively teach learners using Art. I have also learnt that arts Integration in the foundation phase is that it embraces each learner's unique skills and capabilities. It makes it easy for the learners to engage and it offers many ways to construct and show understanding. Art integration in the foundation phase also help children to develop motor skills ,decision making skills, social skills,language skills, inventiveness and risk taking skills. Arts integration can lead to transformative experiences for both teachers and learners while fostering creative and imaginative capacities of the teachers and the learners alike.

I now understand that music elements are the building blocks in music. Through combining the different elements, we can create music. Tone refers to a specific music element that gives music its characteristic sound and through which we differentiate between music and noise.

The only thing I think Iam going to struggle with is to practically teach about Art because I have not done any teaching in class.
