Introduction: Integrating Arts into Education

The speaker introduces the topic of integrating arts into other subjects, referring to it as "teach arts," emphasizing that teachers are artists who naturally incorporate arts into their teaching. The session aims to share practices and provide new insights into integrating arts across different disciplines.

Understanding the Integrative Approach

The integrative approach connects concepts to the real world, allowing students to apply their learning to daily life and build essential soft skills like determination, communication, and empathy. It emphasizes that subjects are interconnected and that art can enhance understanding and engagement in lessons. This approach moves away from isolated lectures, highlighting the relationships between different disciplines.

Characteristics of Integrative Learning

Integrative learning connects school learning to real-life situations and considers learners' individual differences, targeting multiple intelligences. It balances the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains of learning objectives and integrates values, enriching the learning experience beyond traditional subject matter.

Defining Art and Its Role in Education

Art is defined as a visual object or experience consciously created through skill or imagination, encompassing various media such as painting, sculpture, photography, and performing arts like dance, music, and theater. Integrating art allows students to connect to the real world, explore their imagination, and learn topics effectively, hitting multiple objectives with one lesson plan.

Integrating Arts into STEM Education

Integrating arts into STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) provides students with a way to internalize concepts, process information, visualize, and think metaphorically. It encourages creativity, motivates students, and can lead to pursuing STEM careers. The speaker shares personal experiences and highlights the importance of providing opportunities for creative expression in STEM subjects.

Nine Strategies for Integrating Arts into STEM

The speaker suggests nine teaching strategies for integrating arts into STEM, including:

  1. Choice Boards or Project-Based Learning: Allowing students to choose activities like making videos, writing stories, or creating songs to explain STEM concepts.
  2. Photo Scrapbooks: Creating scrapbooks with collages or mosaics to represent topics like states of matter or parts of a flower.
  3. Graphic Design or Graphic Organizers: Encouraging students to create visual representations of concepts using colorful graphs and charts.
  4. Art-Based Assessment: Using creative assessments like creating a tree representing family traits or an artistic display of equivalent fractions.
  5. End Result Display: Displaying students' artwork to provide affirmation and motivation.
  6. Tweak a Current Project: Adjusting existing projects to integrate artistic design, such as designing a geometric rug for a floor plan project.
  7. Drawing from Famous Art: Analyzing famous artworks, songs, or poems to understand STEM concepts, such as identifying geometric figures in a painting.
  8. Creative Quizzes: Replacing traditional quizzes with creative versions like color-by-number activities.
  9. Doodle Notes: Integrating art with note-taking to improve focus, memory, and problem-solving skills.

Integrating Arts into Filipino History and Literature

Integrating arts into language and literature teaching develops language skills, makes learning more engaging, and boosts motivation and confidence. It also enhances critical thinking and cultural awareness. The speaker emphasizes using local materials to inspire students and make the content more relatable.

Suggested Activities for Language and Literature

Suggested activities include:

  1. Comic Strip Creation: Writing stories about types of speech and presenting them in comic strip form.
  2. Word Association through Word Cloud: Creating images using words associated with a general topic and explaining the associations.
  3. Picture Perfect Story: Taking pictures from home or the community, listing words inspired by the pictures, and creating a short story.
  4. Drawing the Poem: Interpreting a poem through drawings and explaining the interpretations.
  5. Book Cover Design: Creating book cover designs to demonstrate understanding of a story.

Additional activities include playing or making instruments, composing songs, chanting, rapping, listening to music or poetry, drama, games, charades, pantomime, clay sculpture, and photography.

Integrating Arts into Teaching History

Art is a valuable tool for teaching history, as photos, drawings, and paintings can communicate information about historical events. Students can analyze art pieces to investigate perspectives and decisions. The speaker emphasizes selecting relevant artworks, exploring various media types, and providing interpretations to scaffold learning.

Tips and Activities for Integrating Art in History

Tips include:

  • Selecting works of art that represent the topic.
  • Assessing students' familiarity with the content.
  • Exploring a range of media types, including digital art.
  • Providing interpretations of the work.
  • Modeling the process of analyzing visual composition.
  • Connecting art to historical events.

Example activities include creating a Facebook timeline of historical events, painting artworks inspired by historical periods, creating pop art posters, making collages, chalk drawings on stone, news reporting, and one-act plays.

Collaborative Projects Between Arts and Music in Schools

The speaker shares ideas for collaborative projects between arts and music, such as:

  1. Music and Art Museum: Turning the classroom into a museum with student artworks and musical performances related to a specific theme.
  2. Performing Cosplayers: Students cosplay as characters and perform songs or dances related to those characters, using recycled materials for costumes.
  3. Shadow Playing: Creating shadow plays based on songs, telling stories through images and music.
  4. Listen and Paint: Students listen to music and paint what they feel, using colors to represent their emotions.
  5. Music and Puppetry/Clay through Stop Motion: Creating stop motion animations with puppets or clay, incorporating songs that suit the story.

5:58 e for

6:53 hello everyone I hope I am audible po know I hope I'm heard I do not know I cannot see the responses know per um I am hoping that I am Audible and you can hear me loud and clear s I'll just be asking ma'am if I'm heard am I heard ma'am all right okay so I'm very excited to be with you today and I hope that you will

7:39 learn something new from me and I hope this will be a sharing of practices because I believe that everybody has been into teaching and um you have been practicing integrating know so without further ado my topic for today is about integrating Arts into other subjects and I'm calling it teach Arts okay so why do I call it teach Arts it's because we are all artists no teachers are all artists and we have all been doing this and know we have all been integrating incorporating Arts into our subjects so you are a teach charts okay

8:27 so let's begin all right so the first thing that we have to understand today is the integrative approach okay so our concern is integrating Arts into our subject and we have to be able to understand integrative approach what it is and how do we do it how does it benefit our students okay so integrative it connects concept to the real world it is very it is an important it is um actually one of my favorite um approaches in um teaching because it allows me it

9:14 allows my students to practice their um learning no into the real world they'll be able to apply whatever I teach them into their daily living okay so we we all can agree that application has always been a part of our lessons um our lesson plan would always have that application part and up to this dayanan we have it as assimilation okay and other um terminologies but the main goal is for our students to apply our um subject our

10:00 topic in their daily living so that's what integrative approach does okay it also builds upon soft skills okay so since our students will be able to apply their knowledge or their um learning into the real world alongside it is learning some skills necessary for them to be able to produce what they have to produce or or to learn what they have to learn okay what are these soft skills determination can be a soft skill ability to communicate is a soft skill empathy understanding other people can be a soft skill okay so these are

10:48 skills that are necessary for an individual to also learn apart from the from other skills like computer skills like um singing dancing those are also skills but students uh for them to be able to be more U successful in the future they also have to have soft skills and that's what integrative approach does okay it allows our students to learn skills that are outside the classroom setup or that are outside the curriculum the educator presents interdisciplinary lessons highlighting connections between disciplines rather than isolated Tex and lectures so integrative approach is very

11:34 important because we are able to understand that our subject is not independent to other subjects okay it's actually connected to other disciplines that's why art can really be integrated into our subject we understand that art can play a very important role in making our students on understand the lesson that we want to teach them okay and um I forgot to mention that art is very important because it makes our lesson more fun it makes it more exciting it makes it more creative it more it makes

12:19 it more engaging okay that's why again we are all Tarts all right so what are the characteristics of integrative learning it is mainly concerned about connecting learning in school to real life situations I've already explained that it considers Learners individual differences so we have multiple intelligences and through integrative learning we are able to Target that not only focusing on one certain intelligence but we are also able to improve other intelligences um from our students okay and I believe that you also believe that

13:04 our students have different intelligences not just because they are um good in language let's say or in English they're good in other subjects as well we understand that our student can be good at this and not so good at that that's why integrative approach is very important because it allows us to see other potentials from our students ah okay he's not very good in mathematics but when we apply art he is able to understand it better maybe because the student is not necessarily mathematically inclined but he or she is

13:51 inclined in arts it puts balance or consideration it puts balance consideration on the ABC domain of our objectives and teachers we all know that that we all know the ABC domain of our objectives you have the cognitive we have the effective and the psycho Mo and when you are integrating you have to have a conscious effort in balancing okay the objectives in the three domains okay not just highlighting let's say cognitive because other students are also a capable of let's say being good at their effective domain

14:37 okay so we have to make sure that we are able to Target the three domains giving our students opportunities to Showcase whatever um domain they whatever domain is um dominating at them okay integrative um approach also integrates values that's the good thing about integrative approach we allow our students to learn values that that are not necessarily learned in in the subjects that we teach assuming in mathematics okay I believe that there are values that you can teach to our students but these values can even be

15:25 more uh enriched when we integrate other disciplines okay um I'll be entertaining some questions after my talk but for the meantime I don't have anyone to talk to and I I hope I'm still heard and I'm still clear okay I cannot get a thumbs up today but anyway all right so we are done with integrative approach we are done understanding what integ creative approach is now it's our time to um refresh okay our knowledge about what art is all right what is

16:13 arts arts is a visual object or experience consciously created through an expression of skill or imagination the term art encompasses diverse media such as painting sculpture print making drawing decorative arts photo or photogra uh photography and installation all right so we have um some some teachers think that art is boxed into painting uh drawing but it is more than that okay

16:59 art can also be architecture art can also be singing or dancing and we should not forget that theater is also an art okay so we have visual art we have performing art okay so those things can be integrated in our subjects as well the prominent examples include include Visual Arts including architecture ceramics drawing film making painting photography and sculpting literary Arts including fiction drama poetry and pros and Performing Arts including dance music

17:44 and theater that's why I think and I believe I know that these teachers already um you guys are already applying uh the integration of of Arts in your subject because once in your teaching life I believe you have asked your students to dance to sing to draw to paint okay and that is a good thing okay you have to keep on doing that because again art is making our subject more exciting more fun more engaging and of course more creative okay

18:30 therefore so I explain to you what integrative approach is I explain to you what Arts is therefore as we integrate Arts into our subjects we allow our students to connect to the real world considering their skills or intelligence while letting them explore their imagination and learn topics we intend them to learn Le okay so we are able to hit okay more than two birds okay with one stone I mean with one lesson plan if we are going to integrate Arts into our

19:18 subjects okay integrating Arts into stem so my my the topics given to me today are integrating Arts into stem integrating Arts into Filipino history or literature and collaboration between music and art as programs in schools okay so I will be now talking about integrating Arts into stem stem stands for science and technology engineering and Mathematics I am not a science and techn Technology teacher I am not an engineering teacher and definitely I'm

20:04 not a mathematics teacher um but I I was once an art teacher so um I suppose I'll be able to give you some strategies in how to apply arts in Stan so these are only suggestive and I hope you will get something from this but first I would just like you to realize that integrating the Arts in science May provide students with a way to internalize Concepts process information visualize and develop ability to think met metaphorically and such metaphor creates a space in human cognition where individuals are free to rehearse new

20:51 ideas of expression and form when we ask our students to apply on Arts into stem okay or when we ask our students to apply stem into Arts they are given another perspective in viewing things metaphorically they will have two things to combine making their uh brain uh you know function even better okay because they have to think of ways on how to let's say apply a science lesson into an art okay or how to make a science lesson an art

21:37 all right so again you are hitting two birds at the same time with this okay by incorporating creativity into stem subjects we are ensuring students can feel creative which motivates and encourages them to continue with stem and hopefully take up step uh take up stem career Pathways this is from University uh an article posted by University of South Australia in 2024 okay some students are born creative some are not so we have to provide an opportunity for our

22:23 students who are creative to be creative even if our subject does not require them to be like that okay um growing up I've you know I've um experienced being taught of mathematics just as mathematics I um I seldom experienced teachers teaching mathematics using let's say singing dancing but right now I'm seeing so many teachers who are doing doing that okay in Tik toks in in Tik Tok in uh on Facebook even my former students who are now teachers now I commend them because

23:11 they are applying Arts into their subject especially in mathematics and science okay and that's a little difficult to do but through time you'll just get used to it okay and it's a good thing going back to my experience I could have understood mathematic lesson math lessons in mathematics if our teachers had that initiative to actually integrate Arts music and others in the subject they were teaching okay uh because me I I you

23:58 know I I know that I'm not really good in mathematics but I suppose I can understand it better when it is applied in the things that I know I am good at know I I know I'm uh interested at okay like Arts music dance theater so and the impact can be lasting okay the impact can be more effective if we um if we incorporate things that our students are inclined at into the subjects that we

24:45 are teaching okay so I have here nine strategies okay I have nine teaching strategies that I suggest to you to use in teaching stem integrating Arts so the first one is Choice words or Project based learning this is a good activity because not just you are allowing your students to be creative but of course you are also teaching them to be decisive to make decisions okay so you can ask your students to choose from the choice words whatever activity they intend to do

25:34 examples you can ask them to make a video that explains how a plant grows maybe or how to compute a certain mathematical equation you can ask them to make a video of how um this particular technology works okay you can also ask them to write a story about the topic but of course we have to integrate the subject you can in you can ask them to include 10 facts from those that you have taught create a song a rap or a poem incorporating 10

26:21 lesson facts or you can also ask them to sculpt a human body using clay or do clay using stop motion there's an application I once used it there there is an application you can ask your students to download it it's free and um they they will be able to do animation using place already so it's like you will be taking a picture of a clay moving little by little and they will all be put together and it will be like an animation so we call it a stop motion app okay that you can download and students can use in creating a clim mission okay if you are

27:06 going to teach um Anatomy then you can also ask them to use clay in demonstrating the different parts of the body okay here is an example of a project Choice board there you go um it's not moving but um on my PowerPoint it's actually moving there are choices that you can use anyway so this is an example they can write a news report draw a diagram make a mini documentary create and conduct a survey and show the results but again guys integrate art

27:53 okay you can also ask your students to create a photo scrapbooks you can ask them in um to do so showing the different examples of the topic that you're teaching assuming you are teaching solid liquid and gas you can ask them to make a collage or a mosaic on a scrapbook of this roots stems and leaves are the parts of a flower Reflections rotation translations and relations and guys you you may be you you should you should allow your students to be as creative as possible

28:42 it should be Limitless but again you should be providing them guidelines on how to achieve so you have to make sure that everything the instruction is clear so that they will not be missing out on the real essence of the Scrapbook which is to gather or to put together the ideas that you are presenting them okay because sometimes they can be too creative not anymore seeing the content itself okay and that's a problem we have to make sure that what they will understand from the project is the content while they are also showing their creative

29:28 ity okay sir scrapbook you can ask them to recycle you can ask them to use materials that they're not using at home anymore okay I know our students can do that believe that your students can be can be U resourceful in making a scrapbook that's not necessarily expensive here's an example of a scrapbook there they can put many colors they can uh put pictures that they believe to be connected with the lesson and so on and

30:16 so forth next one is a graphic design or graphic organizers in your content area B overlap letters um maybe because it of of it's because of the platform anyway graphic design graphic organizers in your content you your students can create their own visual representation of a concept they can develop a visual aid or infographic do not limit their creativity graphs can be colorful too okay we have uh fish bone graphs we have y graphs we have um we have so many examples of

31:02 charts pie charts we have so many examples of the different ways in presenting data but again they can be creative in doing so okay they can use other techniques or they can use other templates they can use other images that um also allows them to present the data that you would like to see in their graph so you can make uh you can ask your students to be as creative as possible in doing so but again I am reminding everyone to

31:48 be cautious okay and let's go back to the objective and the objective of course is for them to be able to present the data and the data should not be overpowered by the design as a teacher I would always look at the content no matter how many design you put there I would always look at but of course if you are going to integrate art if you're going to integrate designing if you're going to integrate um creativity make sure that that's part of the grading criteria okay so that they will have um

32:35 um they they will have motivation to integrate art as you intend to okay and that's one tip that I I would like to give you and I know teachers are already doing some teachers are already doing that or many teachers are already doing that that they we have to show the criteria for the output that we expect our students to produce so that they will also know what to expect um what what to do how to properly do it and what to focus on more okay in the in the project or in the

33:20 output that we are asking them to come up with okay so here are examples of graphic organ iers there these ones are online generated these ones are soft copy but again you can ask your students to do um this even with things that are uh present in their class room Carina um pen marker or marker they can use any uh material U that you will ask them to use next one is art-based

34:08 assessment maybe your generics unit could have an alternative assessment in which students create a beautiful tree representing traits within a family maybe your fractions unit could end with an with an uh with an artistic display where where each student uses a material of their choosing clay paper beads to represent their sets of equivalent fractions in different forms remember that theater is an art as well okay I know that you guys are assessing your students in all the activities that they do but assessment can also be

34:53 creative test can also be creative it's not always paper and Pen it can also be creative next one an end result to display so students love seeing their Works being displayed it gives them a certain kind of affirmation or confirmation they're that they are doing a good job okay so you can put the students output on the bulletin board so that everybody can see or you can have a bulletin board on um in your classroom post it on the wall and ask

35:39 your students to put their outputs that they think deserve to be put on the wall okay so it's also good that they believe in what they're capable of okay you will not be the one choosing what to put on the board but but you will ask them does your artwork does your output does your project deserve to be put on that wall okay you can have a mini mu museum or you can post their words on a bulletin board I've already said that students love to create something beautiful if they know that you will display it for everyone to see yes even older kids even

36:27 high high school students they love seeing their work being displayed I am a journalism advisor I'm a school paper adviser and um it Thrills my students to be seeing their articles on our Facebook page that is one of um my ways in motivate motivating my students in that way they feel confident in that way they feel motivated here's an example of a bulletin board with students artwork tweak a current project try making adjustment to a current project in your own classroom do you have your

37:14 classes draw out floor plans of houses when you study area and perimeter add to this project by having your students design a geometric rug with a certain area for the floor and delaying and rotating the artistic design on the rug to make a matching similar figure in a different orientation for a larger room so maybe you have um a project that you're asking your students to do and it's the common project that you have always been giving annually without integrating Arts so maybe it's your time now to think of um ways on changing it and making even making it even more

38:01 exciting okay so look at your lesson plants and observe maybe there's another way of you know making your students present the lesson maybe there's another way of making uh of uh producing an output no for your subject drawing for uh drawing from famous art find a famous artwork song or poem that portrays the concept your class is studying desolations by aser staright for learning about stars and ask students questions about the accuracy or

38:47 content of the art so let's say you will ask your students to um look at certain facts or science facts in a certain song when they see a song that contains certain information about science you can ask your students to affir negate or correct those information okay are they true or only myths okay so that can be a good activity ask your students which phase of the moon may be occurring in certain songs about the moon like a big pizza pie That's Amore as your um ask

39:36 them to find a piece of famous art that contains a pair of congruent um triangles okay let's say for example the women of alers by Pablo Picasso so obviously this is a cubism this is uh an abstract uh painting by Pablo Picasso so maybe you can ask your students to figure out what geometrical figures are present in the painting can you ask them to name it you can also ask them to point at it if you have a picture of it posted on your

40:22 Blackboard or uh presented on your TV screens so you can ask them to point at it and name it okay so if you incorporate famous artworks or famous art maybe a song a poem they will feel they can better relate to it or they can understand it better because they will be um using a schema to to serve as Foundation to learning something more okay and um that's a constructivist approach okay when um our students already have a knowledge of the

41:09 topic that you are going to teach them this this time you are asking them to relate the topic that you're teaching to something that they are familiar with and that is the f um that is the famous artwork that you have selected swap out your traditional quiz with a creative create your own quiz version okay try having them create a simple color by number review activity for a partner instead the image should represent the content and multiple choice answers can correspond to certain colors for regions of the picture your class will still be reviewing and writing questions about the same content

41:56 but they will will also be thinking about what elements are most important to include in their picture okay this is an example of um of uh painting by number all right and those numbers can be representing certain idea in your lesson um and you will ask them to color these numbers that these colors are also representing certain Concepts Associated to the topic you're teaching and they are able to create a painting or an artwork already through that okay next

42:46 one doodle notes doodle notes provide tons of learning benefits students will integrate art with while connecting the two brain hemispheres this leads to better focus memory problem solving skills and even even lower stress levels you know um art can be therapeutic too and it's also a good brain exercise so while you are exercising the brains of your students through the lessons about mathematics science and engineering you can also have them uh um you can also ask them to do like a doodle note okay that will

43:34 allow both brains to be exercised and developed here are examples of doodle notes there you go um wait for a while I'll just be checking all right so let's continue all right I have here a question I don't know where you're going where you can post this um maybe we can ask the team to share it to me or share your answers to me but I have here a question that

44:21 you may answer later um think out loud How would you most interestingly apply integration of Art in teaching periodic table of elements I know that many teachers watching me today are already doing this and how do you do it and if you have not done it how would you do it how will you do it if you have not done it yet how will you do it okay using arts in teaching all right so we're basically done with integrating

45:08 arts in science and technology engineering and Mathematics and I hope that you have um a platform where you can share your practices with other teachers because I believe the science teachers the mathematics teachers engineering teachers the stem teachers are already doing this okay but if you have not done yet done this yet please integrate art because not all students are very good in science in mathematics in engineering but some students are good in arts and I know they can understand

45:56 better they will be able to relate better to your subject if they will see that you are also considering uh what they're good at okay what they are inclined in next one using arts in teaching Filipino history and literature so let's begin using arts in language and literature teaching so I put it as one I am a language teacher I am also a literature teacher I'm an English teacher actually so when you integrate

46:45 arts in teaching literature you are actually also able to target language teaching when you integrate language into art s you are able to Target literature so these three are relative to one another okay so I've already put language and literature together as we integrate arts in them or into them using arts and language teaching is beneficial very beneficial to our students what are the benefits that our student students can get from integrating arts in language

47:30 teaching language skills they will be able to develop their language ability okay of course when you're doing arts and you integrate language it will be more engaging to our students it will be a more memorable experience to our students okay making language learning even more powerful or more effective okay let's say a student of yours is very good in singing or in composing songs so when you ask them to let's say incorporate parts of speech in the song

48:19 they're going to create you're able to develop their language skills and at the same time you are integrating Arts okay you are able to also develop um their ability in music whatever ability it is that's related to Arts okay you are also able to develop their motivation and confidence they will be more motivated I mean and they will be more confident okay if our students will do things that they are that they believe they are good at if they do things that they are very interested at

49:05 they will be more motivated and they will be more confident who are very good in in arts who are very good in music in dancing in theater in film and when we try to teach language or literature to them while asking them to use their um inclination or things that they are good at they will be motivated they will be more confident oh okay I'll be I'll

49:51 be expressing my language ability wello doing something that I truly love let's say music okay so that produces a very motivated and a confident student critical thinking definitely because they will be not just thinking of how to improve their language use or how to understand a literary piece but also they'll be able to think of ways on how to put art language and literature together and that develops students critical thinking and who are not really that good in

50:38 critical thinking and we have to focus on them and um surprisingly integrating arts in language teaching in literature or in any subjects for that matter I think can develop their critical thinking cultural awareness okay so um while you're teaching literature while you're teaching language of course they'll be able to be more um acquainted of the culture of the language you are studying in this case but at the same time if you are integrating Arts they will also be more

51:24 familiar with the Arts produced in the Philippines okay while learning the language while reading a literary piece okay so um I highly suggest also that um as teachers especially language teachers let's use materials that are local okay that are uh part of the community We Belong inaga so that our students can have can can uh let's say can be more inspired they can be inspired that they can also do it if one of the members of

52:11 my community can do it then I can do it too for example in writing now if you ask your students to read something that uh that is locally produced then they will have a mentality now ah I can also write my own story and one day my community will be reading it to and at the same time localization um contextualization allows our students to relate better to the topic being discussed okayo writers

52:59 so um it will be an encouragement to your students and at the same time an inspiration and at the same time they will be able to relate better to the uh material you are using okay here are some suggested activities in integrating arts in language and literature again these are only suggested I believe that you guys have very rich experience and very um wide uh ideas in terms of integrating Arts into the subjects you're teaching I

53:45 would be glad to hear um your ideas and um W platform where you are in per I hope I will be able to see that I'm calling out the um attention of the team please provide me yes I know that I can also learn from our um participants here so here are some suggested activities about integrating arts in language and literature so the first one is make a comic strip so recently I've already done this in my class I asked them to write WR a story about the types of speech and I asked them to put that

54:33 story into a comic strip it doesn't have to be uh you know numerous paper numerous Pages it can just be one or two pages for as long as you're able to achieve the goal the objective of your activity and my objective then was for them to be able to produce a story incorporating the incorporating the types of speeches and at the same time apply comic strip or using comic strip in um in laying out their stories okay the students will enhance their communication skills through the dialogues they will compose group the

55:20 students be sure to have one or two members who are good at drawing that's also one of the things that I would like everybody to um everybody to remember okay you have you have to remember that when grouping your students you have you have to make sure that there is an intentional grouping I mean um when you group your students you have to make sure that let's say if you if they will be doing a comic strip there's one from the group that is good at drawing there's one in the group that's good in story writing in doing so

56:09 you are making sure that the groups that you have made or the students have made are um equal okay um heterogeneous or homogene gen use whatever you you decide to use are logical they are logical but do not tie yourself into heterogeneous or homogeneous teaching or grouping okay it has to be there has to be um a purposeful purposeful way of grouping or making groups in your classes okay

57:02 it's not always like that you can also put together those who have commonality and's say those who are good who are good at drawing those who are good at uh or who are intelligent encourages them to it it challenges them challenge I will be doing the same okay so homogeneous is important heterogeneous grouping is also important but do not tie yourself into each no as I I'm afraid that there are teachers who are um grouping

57:49 students let's say heterogeneous or homogeneous way okay let's say from the beginning of the class at the end of the school year and that's not I'm not encouraging you to do that okay homogeneous and heterogeneous are um have Logics no and um it's up to you actually on how you're going to implement it but you have to make sure that you have um uh reason in choosing so do not just let your students group themselves do not just you know group according to the

58:36 number they picked okay there has to be an intentional grouping that's what I'm trying to say here okay next one give a topic to write a story give each group a topic to write a story about give a comic strip template if you prefer a certain template you can give them that you can you have to set a criteria and be sure to check the dialogues if they are written correctly and if the story aligns with the topic given that's one of the things that I made sure in this activity when I asked my students to do this I had to make sure that they were really able to

59:23 create stories aligned with the type of speeches okay because again that is the real uh goal of the activity for them to be able to use uh use your topic in their daily living okay um but of course again as I've said you have to set a criteria so the students will will not be um taking for granted gred let's say art incorporation or art integ integration aesthetic quality also matters their creativity also matters so you can use them as your other

1:00:12 criteria word association through word cloud think of a general topic let your students associate words with it then put all those words together in a creative way cre creating an image ask them to explain so we have always been doing the spider map if you are um concept map you if you are uh familiar with it know you you are going to put let's say one word in the center and then it will Branch out to other words associated to it so there's another way of doing that it can be through a word cloud so the words that the students will think are associated to the word

1:00:59 you have provided are will be put together to create a certain image pring Ebon it can be a bird it can be a cloud it can be a flower but the idea is to put the words associated to the word you have uh you have given them on a creative Manner and after that you can ask your students why they they think that those words they put together are associated to the word you have given creativity critical thinking will be exercised here next one is Picture Perfect story the students will take a picture from

1:01:45 their home or community that inspires them they can write four words can be a noun adverb adjective or number my Filipino parts of speech they will use this these words and the pictures to make a short story so they will be listing these words maybe four it depends upon you how many words you want them to um list from the pictures they have uh they have seen and they have taken okay again photography is an art so this is an art integration they will use these words

1:02:30 and the pictures to make a short story then they will share this in front of the class so it's a very good um activity because it practices your students ability to take pictures um to look at um you know what's good about the picture how to describe it and after after describing the picture after um seeing the details of the picture they will be creating your their own short story so achieve then they will share this in front of the class so here you will add up to their

1:03:16 confidence they will feel um okay my student I my teacher wants to see uh wants me to show my output to my classmates so that's something that can also motivate or Inspire them another one is draw the poem present the poem to your students ask them to read and understand it make them draw an image or images about how they understand it and ask them to present their answers or outputs remember that everyone can have different interpretation I'm afraid that some teachers would teach poem giving only one

1:04:03 interpretation a poem can have different or multiple interpretations it will depend upon the reader it will depend upon your student of what interpretation he or she has that's why you have to provide an opportunity for your student to explain his word so assuming he already understood the poem that you have presented it's not time for him or her to draw it and after drawing it you have to ask them to explain their interpretation and why did they come up with that um drawing and again you have to be careful because there can be multiple

1:04:52 interpretations um we might think that the p only can be interpreted that way you know limiting our perspective of our students outputs so liit perspective of our students outputs we won't be able to give them the grade that they deserve because at the end of the day the you should focus on the criteria and the criteria should be solely focusing on the artwork they they have produced their kind of interpretation the way they understood the poem okay but not it's not part it

1:05:39 should not it should not um indicate or or your criteria should not be indicating uh how your stud students presented the drawing based on the the the interpretation that you have given them okay or that you have that based on the interpretation that you have in mind or that you have read okay because at the end of the day we are teaching our students to to interpret poems okay to enjoy poems based on their own understanding and experiences

1:06:25 ah Ang po Pala Hindi Pala na interpret Lang Pala siya ngga let's say MGA language um experts Scholars Gan um let's provide an opportunity for our students to um love literature by letting them relate to the literary pieces we present based on their experiences and knowledge next one um make your own book cover design so in here this is one of the activities we've had in

1:07:12 our in our book um National reading month okay we asked our students to make their own book cover Design This is a good activity because they are required to understand the short story or the story you will present them so it's up to you if you want a short story or a longer one based on the age level or the grade level of your students Junior High School we use short story okay so they will understand the short story because without understanding it they won't be able to conceptualize what book cover is suited for it so make

1:08:00 them conceptualize of its book cover we know that the book cover should be giving a glimpse of what the story is about right so uh without understanding the story given they won't be able to come up with a correct book cover so maganda because it will require this to student to understand the material he or she is reading and hopefully it can add up to their uh ability to comprehend a text which is one of the biggest problems we have right now

1:08:48 problem pandemic you know so that's what we are we have always been focusing on how to bridge the gap brought about by the pandemic especially in reading so this one if if the student is very good in art so we will have he or she will have the motivation to really try to understand the story you have given them because he or she would want to be able to create a book design of his or her own they have to put the title and the author of the story that's

1:09:36 part of a book cover we all know that and they can use any materials they want so you can ask them to for those who are not very good in drawing or painting they can also be creative by asking um by by using uh threedimensional uh book covers so they can also use collage MOS um put all the um things that they have they have or they have seen on the book cover to create the image that they would like to have to create the design that they would like to have okay so that's a good

1:10:22 way also um past thing uh bluing uh whatever uh they think will add up to their concept that's a good one other examples in incorporating um arts in language and literature definitely you can ask them to play or make their own instruments that's a good one okay so you can ask them to compose songs you can ask them to perform that's one of the things that I've done in my class I asked them to when I taught tenses of verb I made sure

1:11:10 that they would be able to um I when I when I taught um T of verb I asked them to write a song I made sure that I would see all the tenses of verb in their song and I I um also required them to be able to use the tense of verb correctly okay so that's one and I asked them to perform it in my class and they were all excited about it I I don't know but many of um the students today are really more excited performing and uh creating an art okay and that's not a bad thing we can use it to our Advent and the topic that we are talking today

1:11:58 is a very good one because we it it it allows us to use art to our advantage okay that that fact the fact that our students are very interested in dancing music and the fact that that they are like that we can use it to be of our advantage in our subjects in our lessons Okay you can also ask them to chant to rap you can also ask them to listen to music or poetry you are developing one of the skills that they have to have and that is listening we have listening Reading

1:12:44 Writing speaking and any others know and that's important for us to uh develop and we can develop those skills through art composing music songs drama games charades pantomim poppets move to words poetry or ideas popular and creative dances clay sculpture Photography in photography again um we had that already you can ask them to U take a picture of what inspires them in their community and write a short story but you can also just asked them to write an essay about it and we call it a photo essay write a story through the

1:13:31 images on a dice this one of the activities in um our English month so there is a big dice we have this um activity called literary Gladiators okay so all the activities that the our students need to accomplish are related to um of course English or language you know so write a story through the images on a dice there's a big Dice and each side has a picture one member the first member will be rolling the dice and whatever picture he or she gets he or she has to create a

1:14:20 one um a sentence okay about it so for example the king is sleeping the other member will be rolling the dice and will continue the sentence that the first member has made okay through the sentence he or she will make based from the picture he or she has gotten the third member will do the same until they are able to um create one story already connecting their sentences together okay research works of art okay so you if you um are a research teacher you can also ask your

1:15:06 students especially those who are good at Art it's not always um it's not always students perspective students activities students discipline it can also be researching about art researching about music in the community commun researching about dances in the community okay so that can be an example so those are examples in incorporating art in language and literature teaching and I hope I will be reading later some um practices that you guys are already doing in teaching English and

1:15:53 integrating art using arts in teaching history okay so what are the activities that you can do anyway using arts in teaching history art is an important and perhaps unexpected tool in teaching history photos drawings and paintings can communicate an abundance of information about historical events students can analyze pieces of Art to assist them in digging deeper into investigating an artist's perspective and decision making okay so um a while ago I've

1:16:39 mentioned that integrating art can actually widen um one's cultural awareness so culture is part of our history and if we integrate art in history it can be an exciting um exciting activity for our students while learning some difficult to memorize words or names or dates while you know digging up the history or the stories of the past we are also able to see

1:17:25 our students artistic side okay and it can be a fun an engaging experience to our students so here are some activities or some tips okay in integrating art in history you have to make sure that you select works of art you should not just be okay we're studying about Renaissance period or we're studying about this historical um era or era historical era okay oh this is the most popular artwork in this particular ERA this is what I'm

1:18:11 going to choose okay it's not always like that you have to decide how the art will be incorporated in your lesson you have to make sure that that the artwork that you will be selecting is something that can um that can represent the topic that you are discussing you have to also assess the degree of familiarity that students may have with the content of the work you have to consider whether the art expresses a reaction to a historical decision and ways it might be used to frame a discussion about why people had those reactions and their responses so for instance the uh um what's this by

1:18:56 Leonardo daav Vinci Mona Lisa why do people react like that to that particular artwork how important is that artwork in the hisorical development of that place where lonardo Da Vinci lived okay so that can ignite a discussion about not just the art itself but also the history where the artwork was made or the the time when the artwork was made because I always believe that an art I am a visual artist for and I believe that the artworks that we produce have something to do with the

1:19:42 society or the community we belong in so our word that the the events the happenings in our current time can dictate what art pieces we are going to produce and pandemics I've seen a lot of art works that are related to um covid-19 so an artw if we choose the right artwork it can help us discuss our history subject better okay you have to explore a range of media types not just painting not just drawing not just

1:20:29 sculpture art or media types that we can explore and I've always been mentioning traditional Arts you digital art po can also be used I am also a digital artist and umam traditional art though I'm more more into traditional art I believe that that that digital art can still be a good skill for our students to learn we always have the devices in our hands they always have cell phones in their hands so right away if they feel

1:21:15 like doing an art they can also do that and you guys you teachers can also use uh you can also ask your students to do digital art you can ask them to lay out a concept you can ask them to draw something you can ask them to um download an application and turn something into something turn something into digital uh piece so that can be a a good opportunity for your students too text about interpretations of the work can be a helpful tool to scaffold learning okay so in here I've already mentioned that interpretation can be

1:22:00 different from one person to another it varies from one person to another but let me guys um tell you that giving our students an interpretation of a certain uh let's say scholar or a certain person who has very deep knowledge about let's say the poem or the pece we are we are asking our students to interpret can also be a good way for them to widen their experience for for our students to widen their experience in in interpreting an art okay ah we can also interpret an art based from the artist's life so maybe

1:22:49 they will you will give them an interpretation that talks about the artist life so that can widen the students um experience in terms of giving meaning to an art piece okay the next one is model the process offer several elements for students to consider to analyze the visual composition of a painting So if you intend to use painting or any um artwork type media type in teaching the history the history you should also make sure that you give your students

1:23:35 different perspectives or different ideas um on how to interpret a painting and a color can tell so many things about a painting using different colors especially those that contrast can communicate how one may feel about a person event or idea framing ask students to examine how surrounding features create a frame around the main focus of the picture in the Washington Crossing the Delaware example Washington is surrounded by his soldiers eyes and the flag encouraging viewers to remain focused on his depiction symbolism encourage students

1:24:21 to think about what something stands for that what it just appears to be body language positioning and facial expression can communicate how a subject FS within the photo drawing or painting lightning lighting and Shadow amounts of light and dark can be present information regarding something that occurred or will happen in the future so these are some elements that you can teach your students um in interpreting um uh an artwork okay so they can better perform the activity and of course these elements tell about so tell so much about the history One

1:25:06 belongs in for instance those that were doing drawing on the caves during the time the the prehistoric era so they were using certain colors because those are the materials only available during that time they were using pigments of leaves pigments of um minerals pigments of um blood okay because those were the media only available during their time and it it it already discusses of the kind of you know um life people from that era had okay their

1:25:53 life were very very simple their life were very basic and they did not have the technology that we have today so that's it that's one you can also connect to history after students understand the specific techniques using a piece of art explain how it may relate to historical events outline the learning goal for students at the outset be prepared to share pieces of information about the historical event as the students begin their task some students will be able to take the discussion in the direction you want While others can benefit from guided questions to help Focus their observations some people some students will are very good in connecting the art

1:26:40 to the historical event you are you are discussing but not all students are like that some students would need questions to guide them some students would need your guidance in connecting that artwork in the historical event so prepare some questions to help them out some students or once students have assessed the individual piece of art and the artist ask them to consider the peace in the context of other works at the time okay provide them uh provide other contrasting examples of art from the time period can help reinforce learning of about the time period

1:27:27 okay um wait a little bit all right so um let's go here there you go here are some example activities that you may use these ones I've used them in my classroom already the first one is Facebook timeline so if you want to talk about his history you can ask your students to make a Facebook timeline um our our Facebook page is actually um in chronological order okay it's in order of time so

1:28:14 maybe the historical events the historical figures dates and all can be presented on a Facebook Faceook template okay you they can do that digitally or you can ask them to use one calina to do so for as long as they'll be able to provide the details of uh the historical events you would like to see on the timeline you they can be as creative as they want to okay they can create their own captions about how let's say Jose Ral would caption um his or her picture

1:29:01 what's happening to his or her life at that moment so if you would like to uh talk about the life of aisel the events of the time um events of the on the life of pisel you can ask them to arrange them chronologically and creatively think of how serel would be posting um that certain event what who what how would he Express his feeling at that moment considering the event in his life okay at that time so that's creative and you will be amazed by your students outputs after next one if I were there I would paint so after that you have

1:29:47 discussed all the historical events in a in a certain period you you can ask them if you were in that uh time what kind of painting would you be able to produce or what kind of artwork would you be able to produce okay so the students will need to think of the characteristics of the people of um the kind of living that people had in that particular historical event um and they would incorporate that in the artwork that they would produce not just painting Med types artwor create so um I know that that you

1:30:37 are your creativity is Limitless okay next one is create pop art posters so this one is a good one what are the popular uh things during that time for example '90s people pop art posters [Music] animea Hindi maala Yung ano ba pfly ni Julina namala

1:31:25 B eraser heads and all of that so you know students can be creative and doing so and they will be um able to generate um different ideas based from your discussion next one you can ask them to make a collage or picture M anything related related to the topic you can you can they can cut out you know um from magazines from newspapers and they will put it together okay they can also do that in can canva upload the pictures and put them together and put that print them out or if you don't want

1:32:12 it printed you can they can send the picture on your messenger chalk drawings on Stone so that's also a good one there are there are chalks that have different colors so we can ask them to do an artwork on a stone if they don't have canvas to um draw on news reporting you can ask them to report what happened and they could be creative um as they want to one act play so that it will not consume your entire period you can just ask them to produce one act play when they say one act play um the the

1:32:57 the uh they have to be able to create a story on one setting with one conflict and that conflict does not necessarily have to be resolved in that way for as long as there there would be a certain um part of the story being presented One Division of the story that's already a one act all right so um I've already mentioned this one here are some collaborative projects between Arts and Music in schools okay um I just want to tell you guys

1:33:44 that this um things that I I will be showing to you are my own ideas of how can art and music be put together how they how they can be infused okay so the first one is yeah I'm calling it music and art museum the students will turn their classroom into a museum where students who are musically inclined will entertain the spectators okay so you you can this this I I suppose the ones who will benefit from this one are are the Mapp teachers okay incorporating both music and art and in the matatag curriculum I suppose

1:34:31 it's only music and art Wala na PE I I don't know I'm not so familiar with the matatag curriculum yet but there's one subject called music and art only or focused only on music and art so they can be put together okay so after asking students to create an artwork um they can turn their classroom into a museum with all their artworks being posted on the walls and you will be inviting visitors Spectators teachers then K Kapa students okay and while they're entering the

1:35:18 museum or the room there are people there are students who have been Ed to perform okay the students are very good in who are very good in Guitar the students who are who can dance the students who can sing the students who can play different musical instruments they can do that while the spectators are looking at the um the artworks but my suggestion if you will be doing this activity you you have to have one theme if your theme is renaissance music or Renaissance then the artwork should be um showing characteristics of a

1:36:05 Renaissance Art and the music being played or the performances being performed are supposedly related also to the Renaissance music in that way there is unity in the ideas of the of your Museum so your your Spectators or your audiences your visitors will not be confused why is that song being played how is it related to the uh ping okay and you have to make sure that the students are knowledgeable in explaining their artworks that's a characteristic of a that's one of the things being done in

1:36:52 museums right right um the the artworks or the pieces being presented in a museum are being explained so they can do that too the next one is performing cosplayers okay we've done this in our national reading month we call it English icons okay so we ask our students to um actually cosplay so they'll be choosing their favorite uh literary characters but in here in this activity they will be showing their artistic side in making their cost costumes but at the same time they will be performing okay and their performance

1:37:37 has to be connected to the character they've selected the students will choose a character to cosplay then they will dance or sing something that is related to it for instance Elsa of Frozen singing Let It Go okay so they will be wearing I suggest that you encourage your students to use recycled materials so you're able to also improve among them their ability to recycle or to reuse things that they have not been you they are not using anymore okay and at the same time develop their Crea

1:38:23 activity and their performing skills next one Shadow playing this is a good one too the students will do a shadow play based from the song they will be given so um we all know what a Shad play is right so they will be creating images images um in whatever way they can they can do cut outs or they can use their hands to create images and um they have to be able to tell a story that's related to the song of your choice the song can be something historical if you're a history teacher the song can be

1:39:08 um about language for as long as the students will be able to show Shadows Shadow play and at the same time tell a story through it and use the song appropriately okay you you you are already doing the activity another one is listen and paint let students listen to a song or any musical piece ask them to paint what they feel from it and use scholors to represent their interpretation emotion about the song so here not only those who are good in painting can participate everybody can participate and it is

1:39:54 um therapeutic also why because they'll be able to release their emotion while using colors that are suited to the emotion they're feeling so it can be abstract it can be there can be images it can be a realism if they want to but I suggest they I suggest that you focus on abstract because these ones are the easier easiest um Arts to produce I'm not I'm not undermining um abstract artist what I'm just saying is you that's something that they can do right away right putting colors

1:40:40 together while listening to the music so if you have one two three songs so um of course the songs are conveying different emotions so time after time they will also have different emotions guys it's a happy song what what color do you think is associated to being happy so they can use that color um as they uh paint okay it's a very fun activity a release from all the you know from all the hard to understand lessons you provide them an opportunity to just

1:41:26 Express their emotion next one is music and puppetry clay through stop motion I've already told you this our students can freely download application called stop motion and uh you know they can use poppets stop toys they can use CLS they can use whatever drawings they can use that to to make make a story to make an animation ask the students to create a stop motion using poppet or CL using a story you are talking about incorporate a song that suits the story or the topic used okay share your thoughts what about you

1:42:12 how would you combine music and arts in teaching and I'd be glad to hear your responses all right so let me um end my presentation with this quotation I'm always doing that which I cannot do in order that I may learn how to do it so guys it's important to try something new time after time do not be afraid of the new things or the new Concepts new techniques in teaching but instead embrace them so you can do better and when you're just you know avoiding

1:42:58 uh avoiding avoiding possibilities you are not growing up okay so learn to just Embrace and discover the weaknesses and the strengths of the of the process or the approach or the methods and you know improve your techniques um incorporating what you know best so that would be all what's going to happen

1:43:51 next thany
