Here is a unique activities program specifically designed to introduce students in grades 3 - 9 to the classic art of the ages, from the Stone Age to Modern Art, art of the Americas, art of the Middle and Far East, and art of Africa, through a series of stimulating hands-on experiences that involve them in a variety of creative media and materials.
The program includes 40 full-colour slides of art masterpieces from eight major periods of art history, accompanied by 94 carefully planned, related art activities. Also included are reporducible Art Smart Charts and Art Smarty Calendards of major art periods, and the birthdays of many famous artists.
You'll find ART SMART! Provides a complete, sequential curriculum to help your students link art with the time and the place it was created and give them experience with numerous styles, techniques, and materials used by artists of the past and present.
Every activity is complete, including all of the details and directions you need for an effective, well-planned lesson. Each activity gives you:
- background information about the art
- the featured style and technique
- an example of student art illustrating the finished product
- specific materials needed and teacher preparation
- step-by-step directions for carrying out the activity
In addition, selected activities contain a full-colour slide of an art masterpiece of the period.
Moreover, you'll find that many of the activities can be completed within a single class period, require only simple materials normally found in the classroom or art room, and need only limited advance preparation on the teacher's part.
