This TEACHER'S EDITION workbook was created by a 20 year certified veteran teacher and curriculum writer for classes in drawing, painting & sculpture designed for grades 6 through 12. Lessons are easily adjusted to accommodate special needs students and material availability in many environments from the school classroom to a fine arts camp program.The book includes more than a year's worth of lesson ideas, project samples, vocabulary, worksheets, sample tests, research paper samples, grading rubrics, sketch and note taking pages, and short creative 5 minute writing assignments. It is designed to work with Crystal & Davis Publications' materials and the textbook, "The Visual Experience" but may be used alone as well. This book is also a helpful aid in fulfilling State and Federal accommodation requirements (504, IEP) by providing special needs students additional documented & written material that may be taken home.Every lesson is designed to be personal and expressive Fine Art. There are NO "crafty" projects or "cookie-cutter" lessons where everyone has the same outcome. This book stresses a "Divergent Thinking Processes" approach and creative problem solving, with an art therapy undertone. All lesson suggestions may be done in different media to work within tight budgets.
