NEW 2024! Culturally Connected Crafts Workbook for the Art Educator
This workbook is a scaffold full of worksheets, assessments, projects, and rubrics that you may copy for all your students! Cut the binding and hole-punch the pages or file them for safe-keeping. Your purchase comes with copyrights and access to a free color PDF you can download and use for teaching samples. Getting master cultural crafters to visit our schools is the best way to teach authentically, but that is not always possible. What if we survey our students to see what cultural backgrounds are represented by our population and use that as the basis for our explorations of craft? What if a student with Mexican or South American roots researches the traditions of the Ojo de Dios, shares their discoveries with the class, and then THEY (with the help of the teacher) lead the class through an exploration of this craft tradition? Not only has the student learned more about themselves, but they have been empowered to share them knowledge with their peers, deepening cultural understandings within their community. This workbook will allow you to understand your population, its diversity, and provide you with opportunities to make deeper connections between you and your students, and their peers. It will allow students to explore their own backgrounds and understand the richness of their heritage and appreciate that of their peers in a meaningful, authentic, and personal way. If you're looking for a resource to help make noodle necklaces, disassociated dreamcatchers, or Origami cranes without context, THIS IS NOT THE BOOK FOR YOU! But if you are looking to do deeper and more authentic explorations into cultural crafts, without appropriation, you may have just found a home here in these pages. |

Review: "The Art books created by Eric Gibbons have proven to be invaluable to me. I have purchased several including: Artistry (Dynamic Activities to Develop Artistic Thinking and Appreciation); Sub Plans for Art Teachers; The Art Student's Workbook (both Teacher and Student editions); and Art Assessments. I'd be lost without them. I have also used lessons posted on his website (www.artedguru.com) that were created for distance learning.
Thanks Eric for the great resources." ~ Karen Nelsen: Art Teacher - Ash Fork Joint Unified School District"
