5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable resource for art teachers., January 6, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Art Is Elementary: Teaching Visual Thinking Through Art Concepts (Paperback)
This book has 206 activities for levels K - 7. Each acitivity teaches visual thinking through an art concept. Each activity is divided into sections on teacher prepartions, suggestions, suggested art activities, alternative art activities, evaluation and other things to consider. I have tried to get extra copies but have so far been unsuccessful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Art is Elementary 99, October 4, 2007

natvh (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Art Is Elementary: Teaching Visual Thinking Through Art Concepts (Paperback)
I highly recommend this book. It is more art oriented (which I love) than craft. The lessons are idea-based, including drawing lessons for perspective and classic value/tone ball coloring.

Each lesson explains an art/visual-thinking concept to be taught. Then it proposes how to introduce the concept and suggests art activities to do, as well as ways to evaluate learning.

The layout of the lessons is according to an age/learning level, but I do use their overall method. I more randomly reference the lessons for ideas and starting points. Great book!
