Children don't have to be artistic but should be encouraged towards expression and creativity. Through our Let's Start Art session, we blend art with the other concepts of the curriculum. Art-integrated learning follows the experiential approach of education, which emphasizes 'learning by doing.' it engages children's minds, helps them better understand the topic, and leads to the holistic development of children.

The topic of the art sessions conducted in September was “Mahatma Gandhi”. The art sessions introduced them to the inspiring stories from the life of Mahatma Gandhi. Since, students knew little about him and his life, they were very curious while listening to the many stories of bapu. After listening to the stories about him, they were able to envision the kind of person he was, his teachings and habits and that’s what they have depicted in their drawings.  

In the second set of Let's Start Art sessions in the month of August, we asked students to read a chapter named "Be Clean and Healthy" from their textbook and share their experiences and discuss their understanding of hygiene and cleanliness with us.

It was a great experience, not only for the students but also for our art instructors who learned about the students' vacation experiences and what they enjoyed the most. The sessions with grades 4 and 5 were livelier, as each student had an interesting story to tell, not only on paper but also as a confident speaker in class.
