    verbal skills - we already target these in math and language arts. We
    need the arts because in addition to introducing students to aesthetic
    appreciation, they teach other modes of thinking we value. For students living in a rapidly changing world, the arts teach vital modes of seeing, imagining, inventing, and thinking."
