Please see the examples below on how to create a lesson that includes art and wellness. These are condensed examples and your response should be longer.
Example 1: To incorporate art and wellness, hang mural paper on all four walls of a gymnasium, and place different colored markers around the room at the base of the wall. Play music, and allow the students to run around. Each time you periodically stop the music, students must run to the wall, pick up a marker, and draw what they feel. Ideally, each time they will run to a different place, and the result will be a large, multicolored, collaborative mural.
Example 2: To incorporate art and wellness that does not involve students getting up and actively moving, you can use images/ and arts and crafts to teach children about healthy eating habits. Children can create their own healthy “My Plate” and learn about the different food groups.
