CLASSROOM ART AGES 5-7
RUSCOE, A
Classroom art 5-7 is a compilation of art activities to inspire students to communicate through visual arts and aid their development as young artists. The activities provide opportunities for directed skill development in the disciplines of drawing, painting and printmaking, while remaining largely open-ended, encouraging students to experiment and explore the possibilities of using their own unique techniques and ideas. The activities cover the use of a wide range of inexpensive media readily available in craft stores and schools and stimulate imagination by building from familiar ideas to an individual response.
Information to support the teacher includes:
- step-by-step pictorial instructions
- ideas for inspiring the students
- examples of finished artworks to use as a student stimulus
- response questions to assist the students to analyse and appraise the skills used, the elements of art (line, shape, colour, pattern and texture) and the content of their own artwork and the artworks of others
- variations and stimulus to provoke invention upon each activity
- cross-curricular activity suggestion
- display suggestions
