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 1).
Contains reproductions from the following artists: Renoir, Van Gogh, Durer, American School, Miro, Matisse, Goya, Chagall, Degas, Manet, Mondrian, Audubon, Kandinsky
To make cards, cut out the 4¾" x 6½" images and laminate, if desired. Ages 3 and up.
