The spectrum ranges from simple figures to challenging projects that encourage students to train their perception, foster their creativity, and learn to appreciate objects from nature at the same time. Flowers and leaves, grasses and twigs, berries and seeds - at any time of year, natural materials can be transformed into interesting works of art by both boys and girls. Interdisciplinary information about plants and their characteristics, as well as animals and their habits, is available for each topic. Step-by-step instructions for each project are clearly and easily understandable. The diverse possibilities for use, group activities, tips and suggestions for teaching, as well as additional offerings for faster-working students make this booklet a true treasure for art education.
