Common challenges and practical solutions for practicing open-ended
art in early childhood classrooms. Open-ended art is defined as art
activity where children are free to use their imagination as they
explore a variety of materials without a planned outcome. When
teachers embrace open-ended art, they emphasize the process of
creating and observe the developmental growth being experienced by
the children. Open-ended art provides children an important
opportunity to think about, feel, and express ideas. It allows
teachers to slow down the pace of the day and appreciate the beauty
that comes from simple experimentation with art materials. There
are many books available to educators that include art ideas and
projects, but Open-Ended Art for Young Children goes beyond the
basics to highlight why the field of early childhood education
advocates for open-ended art and explains how to adapt to new ways
of thinking about art. Authors Dr. Tracy Galuski and Dr. Mary Ellen
Bardsley present, chapter by chapter, the challenges teachers
encounter when faced with best practices and expectations related
art process and product. Each chapter begins with a classroom
vignette that describes the challenge, followed by a plethora of
solutions grounded in research and illustrated through practical
examples. Each chapter includes full-color pictures and photos and
ends with an activity or investigation for reflection.
