HOW ART HELPS THE BRAIN DEVELOP AND EXPRESS FEELINGS - Josefina M.

I am interested how art helps the brain to develop and express feelings. They help students in a lot of ways, yet we don't see them much in public schools or in low income areas. Also children in social risk also don't have much opportunities with the arts. I think it is important that they relate to them because the arts will help them express their feelings and emotions. As for my action I did 2 arts activities; one in costa del este and the other one in an organization where the kids in social risk go. There they are going to draw what is their biggest dream/what they want when they grow up. Compering these 2 activities, we will see how much they can express themselves.
