Stem-to-steam – powerpoint for presentation (includes references)
During the presentation, I chose to focus on the benefits of expressive art therapy in primary schools. I discussed:
- Definition (Expressive Art Therapy uses art, music, dance and/or drama to help children “connect to their problems, give voice to their emotions, and learn techniques to heal”)
- What Expressive Art Therapy can help with (e.g. anxiety, depression and learning disabilities etc)
- What it entails (e.g. it is non-verbal and sensory based)
- The limitations of this type of therapy
- Nurture rooms and their function in primary schools
