Explorations in Art, Grade 6

By: Marilyn G. Stewart,Eldon Katter,Davis Publications,Laura Chapman

A NEW Standard in K-5 art curriculum Theme-Based Learning Unit themes show students the relevance of art in their lives and the lives of people across time and place. Elements and principles, skills and techniques, and forms and media are learned as tools that help students interpret the ideas of artists and express their own ideas through art. Process-Based Studios By learning a process that emphasizes the importance of thinking, planning, and reflection, students go way beyond "make and take." Studio support includes technique illustrations; images from art and the real world; evaluation criteria for each studio; and art criticism. Alignment to Language Arts A five-step studio process, aligned with the five-step writing process, provides hands-on reinforcement of writing instruction and the cognitive processes critical to both visual and written compositions.
