Summary: | This book contains the fundamentals of the teaching of art to primary school children. It combines educational philosophy with practical information concerning methods and materials, providing an indispensable guide for classroom teachers and teachers-in-training as well as for parents concerned with giving their children a wider exposure to nonverbal means of expression. The author discusses the vital role played by art in the life of every child and suggests way of incorporating the elements of line, color, and form as basic components in the educational and developmental processes. The illustrations together with the text provide an invaluable standard of taste and judgement. A complete art program could be evolved from the suggestions given here, and the teacher is encouraged and stimulated to develop further the basic curriculum outlined here. -- From publisher's description.
