With lots of examples and color images, this resource is both a foundational text and a practical guidebook for bringing contemporary art into elementary and middle school classrooms as a way to make learning joyful and meaningful for all learners. The author shows how asking questions and posing problems spark curiosity and encourage learners to think deeply and make meaningful connections across the curriculum. At the center of this approach is creativity, with contemporary visual art as its inspiration. The text covers methods of creative inquiry-based learning, art and how it connects to the "big ideas" addressed by academic domains, flexible structures teachers can use for curriculum development, creative teaching strategies using contemporary art, and models of art-based inquiry curriculum. Book Features: Provides research-based project ideas and curriculum models for arts integration. Shows how Project Zero's flexible structures and frameworks can be used to develop creative inquiry and an arts integration curriculum. Explains how contemporary visual art connects to the four major disciplines-science, mathematics, social studies, and language arts. Includes full-color images of contemporary art that are appropriate for elementary and middle school learners. Demonstrates how arts integration can and should be substantive, multi-dimensional, and creative.
For anyone who has ever wanted to become a better person, this book will truly inspire. God Is a Coleman Lantern is the autobiography of Connie Darlene Stewart, a woman who has dedicated her life to following in the footsteps of Mother Teresa, helping the homeless and poor in the Phoenix area. From collecting outdated canned goods from a local supermarket, to rags and blankets from a local mechanic, Stewart helped the homeless in her community one donation at a time. She later created a "ministry on wheels" and traveled the California Coast, providing food, clothing, and supplies to the poor. The book details Stewart's spiritual journey over the 61 years of her life. When she set in motion her own process of self-discovery, she realized that God's love lives in everyone. In the author's own words: "My relationship to God has been a very personal one. He has protected me, loved me, put stones of learning in my way and angels on my shoulder. The journey of spirituality is a lifelong process. This book is my spiritual journey." Author Bio: Connie Darlene Stewart began writing about her life when she was just a child, but it was not until the last two decades that she compiled and organized her writing. She has worked in office administration for the past 40 years. In the future, Stewart plans to travel the world and write more books. She currently lives near Charlotte, N.C.
