Reading, Writing and Art

"Children who have not learned how to see and mentally explore the various forms of arts and science will not be able to write, not because they cannot spell, but because they have nothing to say, nothing to reconstruct from sensory exploration of the environment."

- Elliot Eisner, Stanford University

Analyze, synthesize, identify, compare/contrast/ observe, describe, critique- these are all words that are present in both the art curriculum and in the language arts curriculum.

I assist classroom teachers in teaching reading and writing skills on a daily basis!
