The purpose of the course is to familiarize students with approaches to the creative arts applied in early childhood settings. Students will learn about the visual arts, drama, music, and movement activities for young children and how creative arts foster total development. The teacher's role in planning developmentally appropriate creative arts curriculum will be emphasized throughout the course. Students will have opportunities to design, implement, and participate in various creative arts projects. While the primary focus of the course is placed upon fostering creativity in young children, the secondary focus is placed upon the demonstration to integrate the arts with all of the content specific areas.
