This text shows prospective teachers practical ways to create classroom environments in which children become artists as they also become readers and writers. Based on the mind-expanding work of Howard Gardner and other teacher-researchers on the relationship between art and literacy, this book emphasizes the integration of all the arts into the elementary curriculum. It also addresses the immediate need of pre-service teachers for clear practical advice on how to set up effective art programs.

A book for every elementary teacher,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bringing Art into the Elementary Classroom (Paperback)
This is a huge compendium of information on teaching art. What makes this book special is that it shows how to integrate art into writing workshops. It also shows how to help children discuss a piece of artwork and make aesthetic judgments. There are extensive lists of children's literature about art and relevant websites. It also has lots of how-to information on working with tradition art materials such as paint, clay, and paper. It also discusses bookmaking, photography and video production.
