Description:

Excerpt from The American Text-Books of Art Education: Teachers' Manual for the Primary Course of Instruction in DrawingArt education is a subject so broad in itself, of such great impor tance in all practical life, and so valuable educationally, that instruction in it Should begin contemporaneously with education in language and in number. The Kindergartner begins it even earlier, a lesson in form being among the very first lessons given. Art Education in its elementary stages is an education in the variations, modifications, and applications of form.The simple elements of form should be taught in every primary school. The education of the eye in seeing form, and of the hand in expressing it, must precede and lead to the education of the mind in comprehending the principles which govern its representation and application. It will be noted, by looking over the schemes for the work of the two primary years, that no geometric form is given technically until children have been made familiar with it by observation and imitation.
