Reads: What the Art Teacher Reads


This book was one of our readings back in NIE. It's useful to early career art teachers as it covers a broad spectrum of information relating to art education. The twenty chapters cover topics from children's artistic development to the technicality of school art programmes and organisation. Pages are adorned with beautiful images of children's artworks from various cultural context. Occasionally, I would still browse through the content to check certain facts. 

A wonderful thing about a teachers' communal library is that teachers in Singapore can borrow this book from READ@academy. We can put up our request online and the books would be delivered to our school at a designated day. Even though there are books available in the public library but most of the textbooks are under the reference section so reading is limited in the library.
