5 out of 5 stars A Must have book for Art teachers   October 7, 2007

6 out of 6 found this review helpful

This is a must have book for teachers who are always looking for new lesson plans in the arts. It combines brief biographies of the artist, including the pronounciation of the name, a concise materials list and a simple step process to complete the lesson. The book also includes an informative key icon that, once learned, helps the reader quickly locate the media, length of lesson and difficulty. The book includes a fairly wide range of artists, as well as media and is a very handy reference book for art teachers, as well as parents who want to continue art training at home after a visit to the museum. I have taught the creative arts for over thirty years and this book would have saved me many hours of research and lesson planning. It does not replace your own creativity but can spark new areas for research and planning.

I think this will be great for exposing young people to the masters. Hands on really works well for this age group (12-15.

This book is an excellent resource for art history lessons and projects that students can really get into. Each lesson is easily adaptable to other grade levels and can be changed to fit the supplies that you have in your classroom. Recommended.

I love the different ideas in this book and that it goes from very simple ideas to more complex.


3 out of 5 stars Disappointing   May 17, 2007

I was very disappointed with this book. I purchased it based on the reviews, but I have to agree with the comment that having black and white pictures totally detracts from the beauty of these famous works of art. I actually ended up returning the book.
