Synopsis
The Drawing is a Class Act series is aimed at supporting non-specialist art teachers, but more experienced art teachers will find it useful too. The three books provide a structured approach to the development of drawing skills. Using a skills-based approach to teaching drawing will raise standards in art and more importantly, pupils' self-esteem and confidence, which in turn will help promote high standards iin other curriculum areas. The books: set out clearly the progression of skills to be taught; give examples of how the skills can be applied; contain carefully planned, clearly laid-out lesson plans; provide examples of pupils' artwork for every lesson; and cover all of the National Curriculum Programmes of Study related to drawing.
