Cardboard wigs, picture alphabets, splatter animals - even with simple materials like chalk, felt-tip pens, or colored paper, impressive results can be achieved in art classes. The foundation for the work can be found in the book: clear step-by-step instructions with information on materials, time requirements, and curriculum connections, colorful illustrations of example works and drawing guides, as well as worksheets for students. The imaginative projects appeal to both girls and boys alike. They motivate through their creative techniques and exciting possibilities for use. Whether in individual or group work, unique artworks can be created in one to four class periods. The book offers not only art teachers a versatile resource of great design tasks but also all colleagues teaching outside their subject area.
