Product Description

This collection of ideas and lesson plans will help classroom and homeschool teachers integrate art into their general curriculum. These inventive and effective methods use the visual arts to inspire creative writing and drama; explore math, music, science, and history; and cultivate critical thinking skills. Art instructors will learn strategies for incorporating other areas of study into the art classroom. Ranging from thought-provoking suggestions to concrete, hands-on lesson plans, these activities include an extensive resource list for classroom teachers without an art background.

3.0 out of 5 stars Art Matters: Strategies Ideas and Activities to strengthen learning across the Curriculum, July 8, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Art Matters provides an excellent basis for integrated learning in education. Through each stage, it provides clear and constructive methods of linking Art content with other subjects in the school curriculum. Often Art teachers do not have time to work with teachers of other subjects in building units of work where subjects are well planned and thoughtfully connected - and this book does this so well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful book for teachers, June 22, 2009
By S. Roberts (Central Louisiana) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this book to help me prepare for my National Board Assessment Center exercise in Art. It was very helpful to me as I am in a school district that places NO emphasis on art and it had been years since I really thought about how to use art in the classroom. Not only did the book help me in my test preparation, it also made me think about how I can use art in my classroom to enhance learning.

I was a student of hers in Indianapolis for 7 years. She was a fantastic instructor, and I'm sure this book will be a great resource for other instructors.

4.0 out of 5 stars required school text
Needed this book for class. The teacher is awful, but the text book is not.
