One purpose of art education that my classroom will provide is to experience a universal language spoken by all people. I want to really push diversity in my classroom and really show that even if we cannot all communicate verbally, humans can all share art as a form as communication. Art can really bring different cultures and ethnicities together and because of that art is a great way of expressing who one is and can even serve as a communication method to oneself through exploration of identity.  I also  enjoy looking at art education as having the purpose to engage in a form of play. Play is so important in a kid’s development because they gain knowledge that is driven through exploration and curiosity. This will result in developing social skills and problem-solving skills as they reach adulthood. I want to use play in my classroom in a way kids can explore themselves and the people around them so that they develop the social skills they need for the outside world. I want to let my student’s curiosity run freely so that their root of creativity can blossom to its fullest potential.
