Art and Archaeology.
Wildman, Jul; Schumacher, Leni
Organized in eight chapters, this interdisciplinary resource packet highlights the relationship between art and archaeology. Chapter 1 presents the vocabulary and several introductory activities that prepare students to participate in the subsequent chapters. These chapters focus on (2) "Lascaux Cave Paintings"; (3) "Life Along the Nile" (ancient Greece); (4) "The First Emperor of China" (Qin Shi Huangdi); (5) "Aegean Wonders" (ancient Greece); (6) "Pompeii"; (7) "Celtic Legacies" (Celt people who lived in various areas of Europe, also known as "Keltoi" or "Gauls"); and (8) "Create an Exhibit." Background information is provided. Each lesson contains objectives, list of materials, vocabulary, discussion questions, activities, and assessment information. The resource kit includes 25 poster images that relate to the lessons. Discussion ideas, based on selected images from the posters, encourage critical viewing and critical thinking. Reproduction masters of student worksheets and guides are provided. Appendices include the "National Standards for Art Education-Visual Arts," a glossary, index, related resources, suggestions for further reading, web sites, and acknowledgments. (MM)
