Description
For courses in curriculum integration and art methods.
Drama, dance, music, art, literature-all exciting tools for the K-6 classroom. But how do you make the most of them? By using the numerous hands-on activities and ideas in this popular, practical text. Here are dozens of daily routine ideas, integrated unit ideas, and adaptable classroom structures that set forth solid, dependable "how to's" for using the arts throughout the curriculum-in social studies and science, in reading and language arts, even in math. Only in this text will you find such a clear, straightforward summary of these five art forms. And only in this text will you find a clearly presented argument for integrating at least one art form into every lesson in every area-every day.
