This award winning site contains a wealth of information for art teachers, scout leaders, and parents. There are project ideas, links, and advice. The Art of Many Lands section includes projects from around the world (some written in French!) A great resource!
In the Classroom
In the art classroom, find ways to add technology to instruction using your projector or interactive whiteboard and demonstrating different techniques found on this site. For project based learning in any class, share this tool as a resource to add visual impact to students’ research projects. Social studies teachers can include lessons about making African art during units about that continent. Encourage your artistically inclined students to explore on their own. Explore this site before a trip to an art museum or to find inspiration for a display or culminating project in a teaching unit. You may even find some bulletin board ideas for your classroom! Ask students to document their learning stages by taking photos of their art and editing them and then making a collage with PhotoCat, <a href="/single.cfm?id=15412">reviewed here</a>.
