Art and Literature Pinterest Board
It is very important for me to share my love of reading and art with most of my lessons. I try to incorporate literature in a majority of my art lesson plans and try to create a art project to help support the literature. I can still think back to my third grade class and remember sitting and listening to my teacher read aloud to us "James and the Giant Peach" and "The Indian in the Cupboard". I would sit there and imagine the story playing out in my head and imagine the pictures and words coming alive. In my own art room, I make sure to have that same experience for my students and often read aloud picture books that support my art lessons. The Elements of Art are a major part of any art lesson and I had fun creating a Pinterest board that discussed different literature books that help support these elements.
