I use a lot of art in my teaching of math as a vehicle for memory. The brain remembers pictures so I incorporate art as much as I can.

Thank you for all the resources you present on your blog. Art is very important to learning, especially for children who are right-brained (typically left-handed.)

Hi there
I am an artist and art teacher from New Zealand. I am writing a blog about A-Level Art (among other things) and it is proving quite successful. Very exciting! It’s a great activity for me as I am on maternity leave and am not able to teach at the moment. The blog is here. Thanks!

I am not going to say what everyone else has already mentioned, however I do want to remark in your information of the topic. Youre really well-informed. I cant believe how a lot of this I just wasnt aware of. Thanks for bringing more information to this subject for me. Im really grateful and really impressed.

Hi there,
Great blog–and list of resources!
I just wanted to add mine to the group–integrating improvisational theatre is another way to promote powerful, multimodal thinking.
