During the discussion the students talked about the importance of art and education. Art is essential to learning, not just as an educational drill. Learning about the visual arts gives the students a window to the rich and interesting world.It teachers students about their own history and culture,as well as that of other people. Art cultivates self-expression, imagination, and creativity as well as critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. We need good education.Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall
Dear Vasiliy: I have now enjoyed reading many of your blog posts. They are very interesting & the photographs are wonderful. Thank you for translating to English. I learned many new things about the Ukraine & your life there. From your writing I am assuming you are a teacher. I have also taught art in the public system, home-schooled my children K-8 & taught Grade 1 in a private Christian school. It is a very rewarding vocation! God bless you. Michele
