Synopsis

This innovative learning tool gives students a chance to express themselves, learn about the creative process first-hand, and share ideas about the world around them. Drawing Is Basic is specifically designed for the classroom teacher -- not the art specialist. The Teacher Resource Books include easy-to-follow instructions, daily lessons, ideas for extended drawing activities, and student samples. The fifteen-minute daily "drawing and writing breaks" help boost students' confidence as well as their verbal and written communication skills. These daily "breaks" can be easily integrated into a math, social studies, language arts, or science lesson. Students do all their drawings in a 64-page student sketchbook, which is great for both at-home and classroom use. This innovate tool motivates budding artists to take risks in a non-threatening, creative environment.
