Von der hinteren Coverseite

"Teaching Primary Art is a comprehensive and accessible handbook for the planning, teaching, assessing, and resourcing of art in primary education.  Packed full of information and inspiration - with a good balance between theory and practice - this text will appeal to a wide audience.  Edwards writes with great authority and clarity, acting as a mentor to those new to teaching primary art, and also providing interest and challenge for teachers with more experience.  Highly recommended."
