Child-Sized Masterpieces, Level 4 - Artists
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 32 postcard-size images and a biography of each artist.
This sequential set (Step 4) teaches children the names of the artists and is designed for children who can read or are learning to read. It should be introduced after completion of Steps 1, 2, and 3.
Selections have been chosen to appeal to young children; each reproduction is imprinted on the back with the artist name and the title of the painting. Each reproduction has two cards--one with a label and a biography on the back.
This set also includes 16 artist name cards. All of the paintings in this set are of people and can be grouped by girls, boys, couples, and dancers.
Contains reproductions from the following artists: Velasquez, Cassatt, Romney, Rivera, Rembrandt, Sully, Van Gogh, Picasso, Van Eyck, Hals, Manet, Renoir, Goya, Degas, Gauguin, and Eakins.
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.
