“Art And Picture Book Picnic:”
• Short Descrip7on: Par$cipants will try out various art lessons, using picture books as their inspira$on. Full website with books and lessons will be provided.
• Long Descrip7on: Par$cipants will receive an introduc$on and ra$onale for using picture books to teach art, plus a web link to resources for teaching these forms of art using picture books. They will then embark on a "picture book and art picnic," where they will "pick" several sta$ons to create various forms of art ac$vi$es, browse books and share their own ideas for art ac$vi$es. Some of the art op$ons will include printmaking, drawing, pastels, fabric art, collage, crayon resist, etc.
“Art And Picture Book Picnic:”Objec7ves

• Par7cipants will engage in interac7ve modeling of the workshop ac7vi7es.
• Par7cipants will choose several art and picture books sta7ons to create their own art project exemplars, using web resources, picture books, and teaching resources, as well as share their own ideas for sta7on ac7vity extensions for the classroom, related to the provided ac7vi7es and resources.

“Gree7ngs:”Me:“Some people claim that Bill is only able to read picture books, but that simply is not true. He really is quite intellectual. He is the Coordinator of the Faculty of Educa7on Curriculum Laboratory at the University of Lethbridge, and enjoys working with teachers to create innova7ve curriculum, with plenty of great literature 7tles worked into the mix.”
Why Art and Picture Book “Picnic?”• “Smorgasbord” doesn’t create an alliterated $tle
• A picnic can be defined as a pleasant task that involves a trip or excursion, with food, where each guest contributes a share.
• Brain food: Art and Picture Book teaching ideas
• Time and space to share your own good ideas• Excursion to several ac$vity sta$ons, to try some of the suggested ac$vi$es

Why Use Picture Books Across The Grades?
“In general, the illustra$ons and the text work together in harmony, to tell a story that is more than the sum of either the picture or the text alone. There is oden a playful irony createdbetween the two forms of communica$on, crea$ng a mul$layered story that younger readers may not discover.”
“Many famous ar$sts, such as Eric Carl or William Steig decided to shid to the picture book as a showcase for their considerable ar$s$c talents. Thus the picture book brings the world of art into the lives of many people that may never have visited an art gallery. We are beeer people for this opportunity.”
Why Use Picture Books Across The Grades?
“Picture books are interna$onal in scope, opening the world to those who experience them. For example, most of us may never get to India, but we can certainly experience the sights, sounds, smells, and atmosphere of that country, through the picture book format.”
Why Use Picture Books Across The Grades?
“Picture books are great for people who may not have yet discovered the depth of experiences to be found in reading. These books not only “tell” us a story, but they also “show” us a story.”
Why Use Picture Books Across The Grades?
“Many famous ar$sts were inspired to start their ar$s$c explora$ons through the myriad of picture books they enjoyed in the company of family and friends, when they were just old enough climb up into someone’s lap for a communal read. Join us then, in exploring some the best best art, the best words, and the best picture books, as we enjoy them together, in the following art ac$vi$es and picture book lists.”

“The other formal thing that I do is that I make sure that the characters in my books … are characters that a 4-‐ or a 5-‐year-‐old can draw: infringe on my copyright with great ease.”
“What I like the most is seeing them riff on my ideas. I call it the willful infringement of my copyright ….All that kind of stuff is great.”
“I’m hoping to engender not just reading, but crea7ng. I’m hoping that somebody looks at my books and says well, I could do that and then they do.”
