[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not let your child take additional arts classes and trust professionals to determine how best to teach the material in their classes?[/quote] What an odd response.[/quote] Not an odd response depending on what OP is looking for. If OP wants their kid to have quality instruction in art techniques then yes, they need an arts specialist. If OP wants their kid to learn history and science and such through artistic projects than the homeroom teacher should be fine (assuming they take advantage of the PD available at places like the Kennedy Center for incorporating art projects in the classroom). It all depends on the goal of the art in the school. Do you want art used to teach non-art concepts or do you want your child to learn art concepts from artists? These are 2 very different things. OP might even be referring to multisensory curriculums. [/quote]
