EDUCATION BEAUTIFICATION
A MOVEMENT FOR EDUCATION
GOAL:
To facilitate learning in the schools by beautification of the learning environments and intergration of Arts within the separate disciplines. To integrate Theatre and Performance Arts within the English classes (Students performing poems, readings, with focus on learning to present one's self as well as evaluation of a text, poem, or play focusing on character development.) The integration of Theatre Arts will teach students how to step into other people's shoes, as well as lend a richer view to the natural reading experience.
ENVIRONMENT:
To have a pilot schools wherein the classrooms are more homelike, comfortable learning environments. Still the same chairs and seats, but long, low bench “window” seats (with storage inside), with cushions on top for children to sit and read in a comfortable fashion during reading periods. The same rules would still apply, no talking, or back to the basic classroom seats.
LIGHTING:
Lamps, beautiful lamps, to be added to the room to improve lighting and add more beauty. The classrooms I’ve experienced have lighting that’s generally poor and hard on the eyes. So having both fluorescents and regular lighting would make a huge difference.
ARTWORK:
This is vitally important. For all classrooms to have framed artwork, a wall that is fireproofed and has clear, fireproofed enclosure so that student’s artwork can be posted and seen. Each classroom should have artwork that pertains to the subject matter. We are losing Arts in the schools, and we are losing them fast. Artwork is vital for development of children’s natural propensity for beauty, and is something that can contribute greatly to the love of the subject. Possibly a mural on one wall. Rooms beautifully painted.
CONCLUSION:
Our schools are constantly losing the Arts, and we need to find a way to integrate the Arts into our learning programs that contributes to the learning experience. It is pertinent that we understand that the value of beauty is inestimable, and that learning is a beautification process by which we craft our own lives and life paths. Once children realize that their learning experiences can be fashioned with love and beauty at their sides, the schools will have great success making them understand that the learning process is what is important, and that higher grade scores will follow naturally.
LOVE LOVES. LOVE FIGHTS. LOVE WINS.
