Drawing is a Class Act, Years 1-2 provides a structured approach to the development of drawing skills. Using a skills-based approach to teaching drawing will raise standards in art and more importantly, pupils' self-esteem and confidence, which in turn will help promote high standards in other curriculum areas. Drawing is a Class Act was Winner of Best Curriculum Material in the Global Learning Initiative Awards at Bologna Children's Book Fair 2006. It is aimed at supporting non-specialist teachers, but more experienced art teachers will find it useful too. The book clearly sets out the progression of skills to be taught, gives examples of how the skills can be applied and contains clearly laid-out lesson plans and examples of pupils' artwork.
