A familiar object found in a work of art can serve as a springboard not only into a painting, but also into other areas of the curriculum. Art Across the Curriculum will help you use the students' interest in the artwork to involve them more deeply in science, math, language arts, music, and social studies lessons. In addition, the painting and its subject become more real, meaningful, and memorable to children learning about it. The artists featured in this book come from varied backgrounds and use a variety of styles and techniques; they are not necessarily the "best known" artists, but they are of major importance in their field. The artwork was chosen for its special child appeal and interest, as well as the ease with which it connects to many areas across the curriculum.
