Art Matters
Strategies, Ideas, and Activities to Strengthen Learning Across the Curriculum

Here is a huge collection of ideas and lesson plans by Eileen S. Prince that will help you integrate art into your general curriculum for students from age 5 through age 18. It is a book that classroom and homeschool teachers will use for years!

These inventive and effective methods combine the visual arts with creative writing and drama; explorations of math, music, science, and history. The activities range from thought-provoking suggestions to concrete, hands-on lesson plans. The book includes an extensive resource list for classroom teachers and homeschool parents who may not have an art background, and wish they knew more.

Created by Zephyr Press, an educational publisher of supplemental materials that emphasize multiple intelligences theories and activities.


"Art Matters is a great how-to book for all teachers of any subject. It is well-thought out, practical, and enables any teacher to integrate creative thinking and art experiences into the curriculum. Eileen Prince shows us that art is multidimensional and part of math, science, language arts, and social studies. Best of all, this book makes art realistic and fun." -Richard Cohen, Indianapolis Public Schools, board member for IPS Magnet Schools Business Advisory Council

"A good art program is an essential part of a school curriculum. From my art classes, I have learned many things, such as how to look at the world from different perspectives and unique ways to express myself." -Ashley, art student, from Art Matters
