These learning standards address word analysis, reading strategies, geography concepts, historical events, team-building skills, and problem solving. In addition, we address how the arts shape and reflect history, society, and everyday life. Through applications of these learning standards, students demonstrate and strengthen their comprehension of basic knowledge and skills. These skills are multidisciplinary in their application and reinforce the importance of basic skills in reading and writing, among other areas. The opportunity S.O.U.L. Creations provides for students to use these skills in a fun, practical, and meaningful manner greatly influences students success in school, in the community, and in their chosen professional endeavors.
