- Summary:
-
Emphasizing an aesthetic approach to language arts, this focused journal issue brings together ideas for literature and writing instruction that capitalize upon opportunities provided by all the fine arts. In general, the articles describe how field trips to art museums and theaters, film showings, in-class use of slides and pictures, and teacher-directed improvisations can supplement and enrich the English class. Specifically, the eight articles discuss (1) the connection between art and English, (2) students and cultural enrichment, (3) art and the ancient epics, (4) painting and the art of rhetoric, (5) educational drama to enhance listening skills, (6) studying the film "Citizen Kane," (7) the frame-story device, and (8) 150 adolescent novels worth reading.
