“Arts integration provides so many opportunities for students to work through their learning in unique ways. I love seeing the confidence it brings and the connections integration allows them to make. Many of the ELA standards explored this week were ones many students have struggled with this year. I really feel like it helped strengthen their understanding significantly.” – 3rd grade teacher in Wake County Public Schools
