    In my mind, there are many reasons as to why hands on art making is emphasized in K-12 learning. I believe one of the most important reasons is because art making can aid students in other aspects of learning. Being able to have the time to create and make with your hands can be beneficial for many students, even therapeutic to some. As a student who thrives in a more relaxed, creative environment, my art classes were something I looked forward to in grade school. It gave me a different type of learning experience that more rigid classes like math or science could not provide me. Lastly, as I mentioned prior, it helps in a verity of other areas of life. While not every student participating in art making will grow up to be a practicing artist, it can teach them things like patience, collaboration, and problem solving.
