WHY ART LESSONS FROM
THE WHOLE PICTURE
ARE EFFECTIVE YET EASY TO USE
Art lessons are fully scripted by a professional artist -- even answers to student questions are provided!
Art concepts that cover required by National Visual Arts Standards are clearly marked
Art lessons are grade-interchangeable. Many teachers will use the art lessons to supplement their own reading, history or math curriculum. In fact, it's very common for a 5th grade teacher to use a Level 1 art lesson
Many of the lessons have 2-3 art projects to choose from - and are tailored for different grade levels
Step-by-step art project instructions are provided
Most art projects use materials commonly found at your school -- recuding costs
Small thumbnail photos are embedded in the art lesson script. When you see the picture change -- change the Power Point slide. It's that easy!
