It is pointless making children who lack artistic talent learn painting and drawing in Art classes at school. Instead, they should concentrate on other creative or practical subjects for which they may have more aptitude. To what extent to do you agree or disagree?
It is argued that it does not make any sense to teach
art
at school
to those children
who are not good at it, because concentrating on other subjects is more useful for them. This
essay completely disagrees with this
statement. I believe painting and drawing can contribute to children
’s mental health and develop other skills in them such
as creativity and imagination.
First
of all, painting is a perfect way to relax. I am sure children
need it at school
as they work hard and experience constant light or strong emotional stress. In other words
, art
can make you calm and less nervous which is significantly important for young children
. For instance
, in 2021 Cambridge University did research on what impact Art
classes have on children
at school
. 89 per cent of children
felt far less tired after an art
lesson. 66 per cent claimed that they felt happy during an art
lesson.
Secondly
, art
can cause the development of other skills. It usually has a good effect on the imagination of both children
and adults. It also
helps children
become more creative, attentive and less demanding of themselves, because art
does not have rules, so any work done in Art
classes can make children
satisfied with their results. For example
, I remember my friend, who used to take Art
lessons in her childhood. Now she has achieved success at her work, although
she is not an artist. However
, her boss appreciates her for her ability always to invent something new and interesting for their company and come up with ideas which can considerably raise sales of the enterprise.
In conclusion, children
should study art
at school
for it has a lot of positive effects on their sense of well-being and can help develop skills necessary not only for artists.Submitted by sonyashpyniova on
