If you are an art teacher, you will find that this book contains the usual, predictable stuff. This book is good for the elementary teacher who must include art within her weekly lessons and has little or no background in art. For an art specialist, I would not recommend this book. There are only 2 or 3 lessons that I would use. Many of them are centered around monthly themes or holidays. If you teach according to the holidays, then you will find this helpful, otherwise... continue shopping.

I am a teacher and find myself disappointed by cuts in districts where art is no longer offered for elementary school students. This book could make anyone an art teacher, with excellent one page lesson plans that anyone could do! I suggest this book with no reservations for anyone who values 'old school' arts and crafts!

This book is simply excellent and I would recommend it to everyone. So many times we need an art project for holidays or just any day and this book has many ideas that I would use. I just did the black and white face project with first grade and they loved it and it worked really well. The directions are clear and there are so many projects to choose from. Granted one is not going to do them all -- but there is about 10 that I can not wait to try. I have never seen so many wonderful projects between the pages of one book.

The book was shipped in the condition as described and in a somewhat timely manner.
