Teaching Art to Young Children 4-9

This new edition of a classic and popular book includes new chapters, figures and colour plates. The book blends practical ideas with sound principles of art education. For the teacher or trainee-teacher looking for ideas, there are plenty of tested classroom examples. For those looking for firm principles of art teaching and "best practice", this book presents many important issues in art education with clarity and insight. Based on first-hand experience of teaching children, the book uses many examples from the school situation. Essential topics, such as developing skills through using media, how children draw, producing original artwork, developing ideas and art and the digital image are tackled with realism and imagination. An important feature is that these subjects are not seen in isolation but are purposefully linked with other areas of the curriculum.

'Rob's book has become a standard text and I cannot remember, in recent time, when he has not been quoted in one aspect or another.'- Peter Moore, formerly Associate Dean at Liverpool Hope University College 'This excellent book brings theory and practice together clearly. It can be applied directly to classroom practice and will be useful in developing teacher's thinking about art and the children they teach.'- Harvard Educational Review.
