ArtsEdge

First of all, I have been a huge advocate and web user of the Kennedy Center's ArtsEdge website for years. It is a great resource for teachers, parents and students for well written art lessons, articles, quotes, how-to's, links and national standards. I especially found this website exceptionally helpful when I was first beginning to teach art ed. I appreciated how each lesson was interdisciplinary and designed with particular grade levels in mind. If you haven't seen this site before and need some ideas as to how to begin writing a lesson plan, this is a great resource to start with. In terms of design, I believe this website is incredible!!! It is so clearly organized and should be a standard for art websites that are trying to include a great deal of information.

The interesting thing about the ArtsEdge website is that it has been a fairly polarizing site. Some folks, love it, others hate it. Who knew an arts resource site could do that! Glad to hear that you've been using it for a while now. It does have many excellent lessons, etc. for the art teacher at large, and it's a site many newer teachers are directed towards. There needs to be more stuff like this online, don't you think?
