Growing Artists : Teaching the Arts to Young Children
Author(s): Dr. Joan Bouza Koster
Growing Artists: Teaching the Arts to Young Children, 4e provides early childhood educators with the theoretical framework and background knowledge needed to design creative arts activities for young children from infancy through the primary grades. Beautifully illustrated with children's artwork it features a wealth of child-tested, open-ended dramatic arts, music, creative dance, and visual art activities that foster children's creativity. Throughout there is an emphasis on understanding how to foster children's development in the arts by creating a safe, sensory-appealing arts program, in which the visual arts, music, dance, and drama created by diverse peoples and cultures is valued. Focus is also placed on where arts activities are integrated into a developmentally appropriate curriculum in a wide variety of ways.
