'The text is clear and accessible and gives a fascinating overview
of how drawing can help children to learn and understand the
thinking of others...It is highly recommended for all students and
practitioners interested in understanding more about how children
express their ideas and theories about the world' - Early Years
Update 'This book is an invaluable resource for anyone who
recognises the potential of 'drawing' as an essential element for
developing thinking and learning in the Primary Classroom...and a
'must read' for those who are sceptical!....This is a fascinating
read that invokes a variety of feelings including a sense of wonder
and curiosity about the many facets of drawing, which leaves you
with a thirst to try out more and explore ways of releasing the
untapped potential of 'drawing' in your own classroom' -
thinkingclassroom.co.uk Children use drawing as a means through
which they create, develop, communicate and record their thoughts
and ideas. Whether it's to play, or to express feelings and
meaning, drawing enables them to learn about the world, explore
their imaginations, and to invent and present new ideas. With an
extensive background in teaching and researching children's uses of
drawing, Gill Hope describes the ways in which multiple forms of
drawing are used by Primary school children. She explains why it
should be actively promoted as a means of supporting thinking and
learning across a wide range of subject areas, and provides
practical support for teachers. Demonstrating the importance of
drawing, and combining a thematic approach with practical guidance,
this informative and enjoyable book: - widens teachers'
understanding of the multiple uses of drawing; - shows how children
can be guided to use it to support thinking and learning; -
explores the range of applications in which drawing can be used
across all areas of the curriculum; - looks to the future and at
the ever increasing importance of graphic literacy. Providing a
fresh insight into the uses of drawing as a powerful tool which
supports children's thinking and learning, this book will be of
interest to everyone involved in the development of children's
capabilities, including teachers, student teachers and teaching
assistants.
