Books at the K-3 level introduce students to the visual arts and view art through history. Colourful illustrations, art appreciation and projects designed for young hands and minds delight students and appeal to their interests. Each of the 32 lessons capture students interests and imaginations while introducing the fundamental principles of art. Three-page lessons and one-page lessons are divided into three sections as follows: What Artists Do: Ten lessons cover activities artists engage in when making art such as imagining and observing. Students explore drawing and painting techniques, gaining experience in pencil, color, and brush work. What Artists See: Seven lessons cover the elements that artists use in 2-diimesional and 3-dimensional works such as shape, form, and colour. Students explore collage, paper works, and colour mixing. Students gain experience in handling scissors, glue, and paper forms. Exploring Ancient Art: Fifteen lessons cover ancient art from the cave paintings of France to book illumination of the 13th century. Students see that art is more than just a painting on a wall. Cultures used it in different ways and for different purposes. We expand students ideas of what art is and where it is seen. Students explore mural, pottery, low-relief, paper art, bookbinding, mosaic techniques and more.
