Now standard in Montessori classrooms nationwide, Aline Wolf's program for Primary through Elementary-age children makes teaching art appreciation easy. Beginning with matching activities, the exercises gradually increase in difficulty. Ages 3 - 9.
Set includes:
The
How to Use... book is a 72-page guide used to implement this program.
Each of the art collection books contains postcard-size images of paintings from all periods of art history. Chosen to appeal to young children, each reproduction is color-coded and imprinted on back with title/artist.
Use any of these collection books for step 1 (matching identical paintings), step 2 (pairing companion paintings), and step 3 (grouping four paintings by one artist). Black Images has painting that can be used in steps 1-4.
Differences and similarities are easiest to see in Level 1, and become increasingly challenging in successive levels.
Each postcard book contains 36 reproductions. To make cards, cut out the 4¾" x 6½" images and laminate, if desired.
