Use a highly visual approach to make math lessons accessible, engaging, and meaningful for a wide range of students. In each chapter, the authors use everyday objects to create rigorous, hands-on activities that address key mathematics standards and concepts. Each lesson provides an introduction that explains how it connects to key concepts, a discussion of the artists and techniques featured, activities organized by grade level, a clear picture of what the lesson will look like, and a list of resources.

The book and its accompanying CD feature a wonderful gallery of images--including art photos and student work--and a collection of links to art education organizations, museums, and websites that focus on the work of forty major artists
