More Than Painting - by Sally Moomaw & Brenda Hieronymus (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

With more than 100 activities, this book provides an endless variety of art activities for the classroom. Chapters address how teachers can talk with children about their art, the stages in a child's artistic development, and how children can discuss ideas with peers. Focusing on the process of making art rather than on the product, More Than Painting is the guide for developing an art curriculum in your classroom.
