This is Jenny, Derrick and Emily. We took the spotlight from Mrs.Davis and we are going to tell you about the wonderful story that we all wrote. Throughout the year, Jenny Derrick and I(Emily) have written this by ourselves, with no help from Mrs. Davis. It has taken us a LONG time to write this, but it was worth it! Well, here it goes!!! Mrs. Davis was very proud to let us post this on the website.
Where Art Thou Music and Art?
Who would be De Vinci without art? Beethoven without Music? We only now ponder these questions that the school system might take away art and music in our curriculum. Without art and music, there could be a billion De Vincis and Beethovens walking around, not knowing their true talent.
Music can give you your dreams. It will teach you hard work. It will break your heart and make you so happy, you can't stand it..."I don't think I'd have been president if it hadn't been for for music." Those words came from former President Bill Clinton in 2001. Those are truly inspirational words for us.
If music and art were your favorite subjects, would you learn to have another? My favorite subjects are art and music. If I were not taking art and music, I wouldn't like anything else besides P.E. One reason I think art and music is essential, is because it helps you read better. Plus, you get to do plays and other neat things. I think art should stay because you get to do projects with other people.
If you take away art & music, you would be wasting costly materials. It would be like burning money.
Taking away music & art is like burning the past and making a new future.
Please think of the children!
