Children use drawing as a means through which they create, develop, communicate and record their thoughts and ideas. Whether it's to play, or to express feelings and meaning, drawing enables them to learn about the world, explore their imaginations, and to invent and present new ideas.
With an extensive background in teaching and researching children's uses of drawing, Gill Hope describes the ways in which multiple forms of drawing are used by Primary school children. She explains why it should be actively promoted as a means of supporting thinking and learning across a wide range of subject areas, and provides practical support for teachers.
Demonstrating the importance of drawing, and combining a thematic approach with practical guidance, this informative and enjoyable book:
- widens teachers' understanding of the multiple uses of drawing;
- shows how children can be guided to use it to support thinking and learning;
- explores the range of applications in which drawing can be used across all areas of the curriculum;
- looks to the future and at the ever increasing importance of graphic literacy.
Providing a fresh insight into the uses of drawing as a powerful tool which supports children's thinking and learning, this book will be of interest to everyone involved in the development of children's capabilities, including teachers, student teachers and teaching assistants.
