Teaching Ideas: |
Individual "chapters" can be excerpted for use in other units of study, such as those about daily life in different cultures or at different times. Students may want to explore the relationship between artists' lives and their work. They may also want to delve into the issue of "folk art," including its defining characteristics and why it is so appealing. |
