Book Reviews of Discovering Great Artists: Hands-On Art for Children in the Styles of the Great Masters (Bright Ideas for Learning)

Book Review: A Must have book for Art teachers
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a must have book for teachers who are always looking for new lesson plans in the arts. It combines brief biographies of the artist, including the pronounciation of the name, a concise materials list and a simple step process to complete the lesson. The book also includes an informative key icon that, once learned, helps the reader quickly locate the media, length of lesson and difficulty. The book includes a fairly wide range of artists, as well as media and is a very handy reference book for art teachers, as well as parents who want to continue art training at home after a visit to the museum. I have taught the creative arts for over thirty years and this book would have saved me many hours of research and lesson planning. It does not replace your own creativity but can spark new areas for research and planning.
