Summary |
"The Colors of Learning will change the way that teachers think about and react to children's artwork. Promoting the integration of visual art into all early childhood curriculum areas, this volume will help early childhood professionals to present in-depth art experiences to children so that they become engrossed in expressing their ideas and newly learned concepts through art media. This user-friendly volume features actual classroom dialogue throughout the text and many illustrations of children's art, including some in full color."--Jacket. |
