We'll be using these Monet art cards to study and then the boys will add them to their art album.
We'll be reading lots of books:
Charlotte in Giverny by Joan MacPhail Knight
The Magical Garden of Claude Monet by Laurence Anholt
Claude Monet: Sunshine and Waterlilies by Steven Packard and True Kelly
What Makes a Monet a Monet by Richard Muhlberger
Getting To Know the World's Greatest Artist: Monet by Mike VeneziaI'll get some ideas for projects from here:
Monet and the Impressionists for Kids
Discovering Great Artists(Love this book!)
Found this DVD at the library for us to watch:
I also ordered these J-I-N-G-O games from Rainbow Resource.
Lastly, if you are looking for some incredible notebooking pages to go along with your Impressionists study, look no further. Nadene from Practical Pages has created some. They are simply amazing! Oh, and check out this great narration idea her kids did for Seurat's "Bathers at Asnieres". We are so doing this!

Well, I'm so glad I came by late to view your Weekly Report!! I'm going to start art and music study next year, and Monet will be our first artist to study! I've already bought a couple of these books, but I'll have to check out the others, too! Thanks so much for sharing! ;)
Wow! You've got a great booklist here. We use Ambleside Online and this trimester's artist is Monet. I'll be looking for some of these resources. Hopefully they are available at our library!
Thanks ever so much for the great links. Now I must ask. I would love for you to make a post on exactly how and what you do in your art studies. Perhaps you have already though and I just need to "surf" your blog a bit more.
