DSB1 Mental Health Education Week

Education in the arts, including dance, drama, music, and visual arts, is valuable in encouraging students’ development of motivation and confidence, imagination, and the use of creative and dynamic ways of thinking and knowing. The arts help students deepen their awareness and appreciation of diverse perspectives and help students explore and express themselves.

Highlighted are just several examples of how students can BE ACTIVE while acting out a story in drama, KEEP LEARNING a new skill of making pottery, and GIVE THE GIFT of creating and donating a quilt.

Let us know how else you can use art to “fill your plate” to CONNECT and TAKE NOTICE with art.
