For the social, intellectual,
emotional and physical needs to be met and for a child to have a
complete educational
experience all subjects must be
integrated.

Integration of music allows students to
develop brain areas involved in language,
reasoning, and creativity as well as an
appreciation for other cultures.
Music

The article, Music in the Classroom, highlights the importance of
integrating music with academic subjects as “…one way to salvage some of its strengths
and to enrich the entire curriculum.”

Within the arena of linking music to the other subjects I see rings, like the Olympic
rings. They are all individual, equally important and
relevant on their own, but slightly
overlapped they show their connectiveness. As a result all the subjects are more
interesting, and more relevant.

Integration of trade books allow students to connect their own experiences to the academic learning
experience.
Trade Books

The article, Themes and Literature Circles, references the
increase of integrating trade books into math, science, social studies and other content areas.
It states, “By drawing on the natural relationships among
subjects, students can see how the curriculum connects to the
world around them.” http://eduscapes.com/ladders/themes/index.htm

This article, as well as another great class I’ve taken, opened
my eyes to using children's literature in ways other than in
a stereotypical reading text environment. It makes so
much sense and will create a more enriched learning
experience for the student, and for that matter, the
teacher.

Integration of physical education into the
classroom allows students to understand the
connection between health and wellness.

The organization PE4Life advocates for integration of physical education
into all aspects of a student’s life. They illustrate the connection
between health and wellness with respect to childhood issues of obesity, attention deficit and
depression. They also link physical education to academic
improvement.

I loved that this organization has a goal for physical
education to “Extend beyond the walls of the gymnasium”
and “Ideally, be offered to every child every day“.

Many factors go into shaping the education, and life, of the whole
child.
Imagine the difference we can
make!
