Child-Sized Masterpieces Level 2 - Intermediate
Central to the Child-Size Masterpieces program, carefully explained in the How to Use Child-Size Masterpieces for Art Appreciation (A108), this companion book contains 36 postcard-size images of paintings from all periods of art history.
Chosen to appeal to young children, each reproduction is color-coded and imprinted on the back with title/artist and the step and level for which the image may be used.
This book includes cards for matching identical paintings (Step 1), pairing two similar paintings by the same artist (Step 2), and grouping four paintings by the same artist (Step 3). Steps 1 and 2 each have 12 cards from six different artists. Step 3 has 12 cards from three different artists.
Levels denote the relative difficulty of the activity. Differences and similarities are easiest to see in Level 1, and become increasingly challenging in successive levels (this book is Level 2).
Contains reproductions from the following artists: Raphael, Picasso, Larsson, Carot, Melchers, Cassatt, Millet, Rembrandt, Bruegel, Prendergast, Marc, Limbourg, De Hooch, and Murillo.
To make cards, cut out the 4¾" x 6½" images and laminate, if desired. Ages 3+.
A wonderful, early introduction to art appreciation and artist recognition from Renaissance to modern art. (This 2nd edition updates the cover only.) Based on Montessori principles, even the smallest child can perform the simplest activity: matching paintings. As they become more familiar with each artist’s style, they learn to classify several different paintings by artist. Later, students learn to classify artists’ works according to the various “schools” of art. Manual describes eight progressively more difficult steps or levels of activities as follows:
- Step 1 - Matching identical paintings
- Step 2 - Pairing two similar paintings by the same artist
- Step 3 - Grouping four paintings by each of three artists
- Step 4 - Learning the names of famous artists
- Step 5 - Learning the names of famous paintings
- Step 6 - Learning about the schools of art
- Step 7 - Sorting schools of art
- Step 8 - Placing paintings on a time line
Art postcard books for above. Cards are excellent reproductions of paintings.
