As I have seen from my four years old niece, the young children are surprisingly good at utilizing smart phones or tables independently. Therefore, most of the activities are independent studies. I really enjoyed while creating these activities, especially the activity is called “Destination Modern Art” my favorite. I even suggested it to some of my friends, who are English Language teachers in my country. I think the green little alien in this interactive game will trigger the interest of children. In addition, the information about artwork and artist are clear, precise and appropriate for the young children. The drawing activity is a good chance for them express themselves in creative way with a different tool. Most importantly, shooting a video is not also entertaining, but also help children to express themselves creatively. I think all activities are might even use to teach discipline skills. This unit started with concept of emotions, change, and behavior. Then it continued with art activities, which I think it was inevitable. Since I think are is the product of our emotions or influence our emotions. The students are work as whole group or mii groups in the part A and B. In part C, independent activities creates a balance on the whole unit

According to Vygotsky’s (1962) Social constructivism theory, visual art work helps children to discover new ideas to express their socio-cultural observation and imagination (Sydney Tafe, 2010). Also, according to Albert Bandura’s (1925) social learning theory the above teaching strategies allow children to consider observable behaviours that allows them to play different roles (For example, crow, dove, parrots and other characters from the story) through imitating their peers and educators (The State of NSW, Department of Education and Training, 2010). This experience allows children to learn and “explore the diversity of culture, heritage, background and tradition and that diversity presents opportunities for choices and new understandings” as recognized by the Early Years Learning Framework [EYLF] (DEEWR, 2009,…

    High quality art programs are an essential and important aspect in providing rich opportunities for young children to engage and learn. Research suggests art has significant benefits to children’s overall development including the development of creativity, expression, problem-solving, critical reflection and communication (Tutchell, 2014). Additionally, Griffiths (2018) recognises the involvement of creative engagement through drawing, music and language in child development. Thus, it is important to recognise each child as an artist who is creative and competent. This can be achieved through children manipulating various materials to communicate their feelings, ideas and understandings of the world (Tutchell, 2014; Wright, 2012).…

    One article called “Democracy of Spectacle” by Karsten Schubert, talks about the museum in its current form and how it had changed over time into what would seem to be a new being overall. These “new museums” have characteristics unlike any before it such as trendy, flashy, and in a way amusement park-ish. These museums according to Schubert are more about the a big display to impress the spectators and bring in revenue, unlike the “older” museums that are about giving the public a form of seeing and understanding art and its meaning. A section from the article states that, “Museums have forgotten their revolutionary origins and their extraordinary history” (Schubert 158), meaning that museums are no longer looking to enrich the minds of those…

    Student engagement is an important concept in learning. It refers to attention and interest in what is being taught (Strong, Silver, & Robinson, 1995). It increases academic achievement and active learning (Strong, Silver, & Robinson, 1995), Students must be motivated to learn in order to be engaged. Without motivation, students will be disengaged meaning they will lack interest in the class and will not be motivated to complete tasks that are imperative for learning (Strong, Silver, & Robinson, 1995).

    “For very young children, making art -- or just talking about it- provides opportunities to learn words for colors, shapes, and actions” (Lynch). It is vital for a child to learn the importance of art early in their life so that they can choose whether or not they will be dedicated to pursue a career involving art skills. Learning about these basic forms of art at an early age gives children more insight in preparation for their educational life. “Although some may regard art education as a luxury, simple creative activities are some of the building blocks of child development” (Lynch). Students involved in simple creative activities within their peers can affect their emotional status and gives a more comforting feeling being around others that have similar qualities of enjoyment.…
