Product Description:
This book continues the quest to integrate art activities across the curriculum. A noticeable improvement in this book is the chronological organization and a helpful table of contents to make it even easier to correlate these fantastic art and art-appreciation activities with your study of history. Sharon Jeffus recommends several artists and particular artistic works to study as well. Activities run the gamut from crafts to drawing skills, from art appreciation to studies of particular artists. All are accompanied by well-researched textual information and black-and-white illustrations. I love the variety of activities and media used - and so will your children. These are all high- interest, involving activities that not only expand on their history study, but teach art skills as well. Always considerate of the home school environment, Sharon has done an excellent job of selecting activities appropriate for use with a wide age range of children as well.
