Drawing and painting, are not simple process for young children. "The complex coordination of intention, action on the medium, and the looks of the final product is a difficult task."
Love the pictures of the children. Are they children you currently have? I noticed that your quote has to do with art. Do you enjoy the art work of children?
Personally, I love children's artwork. Some of it I have it framed and hanging in my office. I can sit and look at it and imagine what the child was thinking in that moment. Its amazing to me how children can draw worlds in their minds and looking at how it comes out on the paper.
I really like this picture. The children seem to be concentrating very hard on doing their drawing properly. I love the idea of giving them their own sketch book, great way for them to feel proud of their work. This looks like a montessori-based classroom, is it where you teach?
I love art because I think it brings out the creativity in children. Children have great imagination when drawing and doing art and it helps children become more of themselves, instead more like everyone else.
"The preschool years are the best years for children to acquire the skills in of flexibility, sensitivity, imagination, risk taking, resourcefulness and experience."
Welcome to the class!
