REVIEW:
This site was created by an art teacher who wanted to give students and teachers a place to easily locate resources, lesson plans, supplies and information for arts education. In addition, the creator wanted to provide a place for students to showcase art work. The Teachers Page and Student Page are the two
main pages with additional sections on art supplies and art images, and a student showcase. The teacher's area has lesson plans, questions from teachers, links to outside art education resources and even a showcase for teachers. In addition to the student showcase, the student's section has interesting perspectives on art, a cartoon page, and outside links. The supplies area provides links to art suppliers and the images section has an extensive list of Internet art images and art collections. This site is set up so teachers and students can find what they're looking for, If it's not here, the author welcomes suggestions and additions. This is a good starting point for art teachers (and students) new to the Internet.
