Abeka Arts and Crafts with Amber Lamb (2nd Edition)
Many of the art projects are holiday-themed as well as academic, seasonal and related to Bible teaching. Each child needs their own book, as they will be using the colorful pages inside to make a variety of creative projects. Instructions are right in the book and clearly show what you will need and what to do. The large pages (8.5" x 12") are perforated. This book includes 40 activities for young children and is the 2nd edition. Not reproducible. ~Sara
From creating African jewelry to giving mom a Mother's Day craft, your three-year-old will love the crafts in this fun-filled activity book. Three projects are based on enjoyable children's songs—"Hey, Diddle Diddle," "The Farmer in the Dell," and "The Wonder Song." For words and music to these songs, see Fun Songs for Little Ones and Little Ones Sing unto the Lord. The 40 colorful projects in this book improve your child's motor skills while he paints, glues, and colors projects with seasonal, Bible, animal, and other fun themes.
With clear instructions for the teacher, even a not-too-artsy parent can work in an art lesson in 25-30 minutes a week. A year at a glance schedule and the scope & sequence of topics covered lay out what you can expect for the school year. Teacher tips and plan ahead supply lists make this program very user-friendly. Teacher help and student pages at each level are all in one convenient book. Art concepts or techniques are clearly defined at the beginning of each lesson. This includes vocabulary words. In grades 4-6, the focus of the lessons is basic drawing techniques, painting, color concepts and perspective. I appreciate the extended projects for more artsy students to do on their own after the lesson. In the younger levels K-3, projects are more of the cut & paste crafty projects kids love, with some basics on the color wheel. The holiday and seasonal pages are especially fun! Many of the pages are even started for the student to finish. You could not find an easier way to work some arts & crafts into your week than this friendly, one book format series that only requires a few basic art supplies. Perforated pages are not reproducible. Large 9" x 12" format. Books in the series range from 119-167 pgs, pb. ~Sara
"Art" for 2s and 3s consists of large pages with simple activities to teach children foundational art concepts. The volume for two-year-old children presents shapes and colors, following directions and developing eye-hand coordination. At 3, these skills continue, and they add seasonal and patriotic themes, religious art, health, safety and science pictures. Both levels include lots of simple wide lines for drawing – and kids create a book of their finished pages. Images are soft and charming and line up with the pre-school lessons featured in the Abeka curriculum.
