I loved this book! I thought it was extensive as it was interesting. I know I may only be a new student art teacher but I know this has to be an asset to the teaching community. It's a book that every art teacher should own. Almost every chapter has something you can take away and use in your classroom. More specifically Chapter 7 on Art and Social studies was so informative. I appreciated that it not only covered ideas to make learning about history fun, but it broke down point by point ideas on how to incorporate present day experiences so that the students were aware of what was going on outside of their school setting. Each chapter broke down ideas for lessons plans and activities. I really liked the fact that it tells you the best way to asses the projects after they are done. It's very much an easy read and broken down so that you have a clear understanding on how to teach the projects and activities. Overall, I just appreciated that it covered curriculum all the way up to 8th grade. A lot of great ideas in this book and it should be utilized in your classrooms.
