Description:
|
The literature on art therapy in schools is sparse and research to support it's growth is necessary. The purpose of this mixed methods research study was to explore the development and implementation of an art therapy program in an elementary school setting in order to expand upon the current literature. The American School Counselor Association has stated that academic achievement is intricately connected to students social and emotional standards of development, yet little information exists on art therapy programs that enhance these developmental standards and ultimately promote academic success. The significance of this study was to discover how art therapy programs could be developed and implemented in an effort to promote the developmental standards expected of students in order to achieve academically. The study resulted in the development of a workbook for elementary art therapy programs and contributes to future development of art therapy programs in elementary schools. |
