ARTistic Pursuits, Art of the Ancients, Volume 2

As young learners create and respond to art of ancient cultures, they learn that there are many ways to see the world and are empowered to make choices and express ideas in new ways. Each text lesson provides colorful illustrations, fine art, and visual instruction. Video lessons engage learners as they absorb new information on art materials and established techniques. This book is an insightful look at ancient art history, from art found in caves to the classical art of the Roman Empire, written for young children. 18 lessons introduce children to the cultures, their ideology, and methods for making art. Learners apply their understanding of each concept to their own ideas, experiences, and interests as they create original works of art. Children work with clay, pastels, and watercolor crayons. DVD and Blu-ray included.
