This document discusses art activities for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. It outlines appropriate art for different age groups, including simple materials that allow toddlers to explore textures. Adaptations for children with special needs include adjusting materials based on abilities. The teacher's role is to support self-expression through open-ended themes and displaying children's art. Art activities help develop fine motor skills and self-expression by experimenting with materials.
This talk concerning The Importance of Arts in Education was delivered at Westminster College on March 23, 2009. My personal favorite part of the talk was revealing the percentage of GNP the arts represent---a real sabot for that certain kind of philistine social (and economic) conservative who wants to crush arts funding in schools. For that individual, here's an economic argument that almost sounds like an artifact of some capitalist Utopia. Considering we don't produce much in the U.S. anymore---the legacy of Bretton-Woods---at least we still export the arts.
This was an Art lesson plan that was implemented in my practicum. The lesson was designed in Developmentally Appropriate Curricula for Children Aged 3-5 (EDSE 7180) in Fall 2021.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Infant and Toddlers
• Infants are not required to participate in art as their hand eye
coordination and self- control has not fully developed yet (Cryer, D, Harms
and Riley, C. p 227.)
• “Young toddlers are more interested in exploring and manipulating art
materials than in creating works of art” (p 227.)
• For infant and toddlers, art should be supervised at all times and be done a
couple at a time or small groups.
• According to All About the ITERS, “Simple art materials, such as crayons
and paper, give toddlers opportunities to use their arms and hands in new
ways” (p 227.)
• Art for toddlers should be simple. For example, large crayons, large paper
taped down, finger paints, pre-cut pieces of construction paper, shapes and
glue etc.
• Another key factor for toddlers, is keeping art simple but fun and allow
the children to explore new materials and textures.
4. Art Materials
Art materials include the following categories: Drawing materials, Paints, Three-
dimensional materials, Collage materials, and Tools.
• Drawing materials: things used to draw/scribble- crayons, water color markers, felt-tip markers,
pens, pencils, colored pencils, chalk; things to draw/ scribble on – various types, shapes, and sizes of
paper, chalk boards, paper plates, and dry-erase boards.
• Paint materials: finger paints, tempera paints, water-color paint set with appropriate brushes and
paper.
• Three-dimensional materials: play dough, clay, wood for gluing or for carpentry, pipe cleaners, and
modeling compound.

Teacher’s College Press p200.
5. Art Materials Continued.
• Collage materials: past or glue, various times of, colors, and shapes of
paper, cardboard shapes and pieces, felt remnants, magazine pictures,
yarn/ string, cotton balls, pom-poms, feathers, natural objects, varied
safe “junk” such as cardboard tubes and egg cartons.
• Tools: safe scissors, tools to use with play dough, stencils, sponge painters,
rollers, brush of various shapes and sizes.

6. Skills and Abilities
• Children will develop skills using various materials
to express themselves through their artwork.
• Children will learn to use different materials that
they have not used before.
• Children have the ability to practice holding
markers, crayons, and pencils and learn how to
draw different objects or shapes.
• Children will also be able to feel successful and
competent. (Whitener, C. (n.d.). Activities. [PowerPoint
slide 16].
7. Teacher’s Role in Art
• The main role for a teacher is to be there to support and
guide the children if they need it.
• Another role of a teacher is to display the child’s art work
at eye level and somewhere in the classroom where the
children can touch their art (Whitener, C.
(n.d.). Activities. [PowerPoint slides 17].
• The last role is for teacher’s to use open-ended themes for
the art work so children can express themselves.
8. Milestones
1. The fine motor domain milestone that is supported by using art materials
is to use strength and control to perform simple tasks. Teachers can
support and help by demonstrating and providing opportunities for
children to use scissors safely (Milestones of Development document-
page 42.)
2. The other fine motor domain milestone that is supported by art is the
abilities to use writing, drawing, and art tools and various types. Teachers
can support and help by providing daily opportunities to use art supplies
that support fine motor skills (page 127.)
3. The visual arts domain milestone that is supported by using art is the
ability to create art to express and represent what they know, think,
believe or feel. Teachers can support children by engaging children to
express feelings by painting to music and engaging in conversations by
asking open-ended questions (page 119.)
4. The other visual arts domain milestone that is supported by using art is
the ability to experiment with a variety of art materials. Teachers can
support children by encouraging them to pinch, pull, squeeze twist, pound,
roll, cut, pat and model play dough (page 118.)
