Abstract	Significant numbers, moles, and stoichiometry were the chemistry learning objectives introduced through full arts integration in a small, East Texas high school as a part of a study designed by the authors for their advanced degrees. This article describes how a chemistry teacher and art teacher collaborated in a semester-long journey into full arts integration in order to provide innovative instruction and lead the way for teachers in all subject areas to do the same. The project allowed the two teachers to explore leadership in curriculum and instruction design through arts integration by exploring the ways in which arts integration influenced the chemistry classroom. Students perceived the arts integrated activities as having a positive effect on academic success and student engagement. The academic success and increased student engagement experienced in this project served as a catalyst for further integrated projects and greater interest in arts integration within the school district. Not only did the study increase interest in the advantages of a strong arts program, it also demonstrated the educational advantages of full arts integration. The study demonstrated that arts integration meets the needs of students by providing engaging, concrete, and hands-on activities. (ERIC).
