Under the Rainbow by David Morley

Under the Rainbow by David Morley

This book could change children's lives. It is a practical handbook which pools the experience of artists and educators who have worked together in schools in northern England. It sets out tried and tested guidelines for working with children and models of good practice which were hammered out in debates at a two-day conference held in Darlington. Artists seek to perfect ways of expressing and communicating: these are vital skills for children. So is the development of imagination and creativity. There are skills to share, techniques at the cutting edge of the learning process, and Under the Rainbow gives a thorough account of how you can put them into action for the long-term benefit of the child, school and community. Under the Rainbow is a handbook for artists, educationalists and all those who want their children to share all the pleasures the arts can give. It shows how the arts can offer the developing child an enjoyable and irreplaceable imaginative and intellectual challenge of lasting educational benefit. 'The first and last thing I have to say about the writer's residency is that it totally altered our perception of the power of language - in the most positive way possible.' - Headteacher 'An artist can strike pile-drivers into imagination and pull out the hidden, the real person in the child.' - David Morley, poet 'I cancelled football for this: it better be good.' - Teacher, on Peter Mortimer's visit to his school. 'I wish to work with children, not teach them.' - Andrzej Przedpelski, Director, Polish Institute of Design
