Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art in the Classroom 2 suggests effective and
meaningful ways to integrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and
cultures into the daily life of any teaching and learning environment. The book
guides you through ways to encourage students to genuinely respond to First
Nations artists' works, instead of merely copying a style or technique used by
artists.
With authentic links to the Australian Curriculum, including visual arts, history,
music, performance, design and science, you will discover how works of art and
artists can be the ideal platform or starting point to initiate conversations and
learn about the world, its history, its people and protecting its future.
Central to this process is the easy-to-follow flowchart 'A guide to using works
of art as a starting point', presented alongside new and varied examples of
best teaching practice. For additional focus, the book also includes suggested
activities for students on important days or weeks of the year, such as Invasion
Day, World Environment Day, Reconciliation Week, Anzac Day, Science Week,
Book Week and International Women's Day. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art in the Classroom Volume 2 has been
developed by AGSA Education with the support of Tarnanthi through BHP.
