This enables the participation of hands, brains, ears, and mouths, achieving effective teaching results.
Taiwanese textbook publisher Mr. Li Wanjí has insightful views on textbook development, believing that "textbooks are not written, they are practiced," as practice yields truth. The "Children's Intelligence Art" textbook selects familiar objects and scenes from children's lives as content. It includes various creative works by children with different techniques, as well as masterpieces, guiding children to observe beauty, experience beauty, and appreciate beauty, thereby encouraging them to engage in creative expression.
Furthermore, in line with the teaching requirement of developing and training children's hands, brains, eyes, and mouths simultaneously, art learning becomes a comprehensive training. Combined with the characteristics of "learning through play and playing through learning," it is supplemented with nursery rhymes, riddles, and stories to fully stimulate children's interest and enthusiasm for learning.
Additionally, the content progresses from simple to complex and from easy to difficult, following a step-by-step learning arrangement. This overcomes children's tendency to become bored with easy tasks or give up on difficult ones, thereby cultivating their interest in art, opening their minds, developing their intelligence, and inspiring their imagination and creativity.
