Integrated arts curriculum

Spelling word created at: http://www.graffiticreator.net/

Thanks for your ideas Elise.  I will try engaging them in street art to build their self esteem and interest.  However I will have to integrate this into the regular curriculum.  Maybe doing some graffiti art with their spelling words.  I still feel that this is too shallow a definition of Arts and am searching for ways to integrate the Arts authentically into the classroom.  Kirsten
