| Publisher Description: Leonardo da Vinci is such a great topic to do with students of all ages But a teacher's first dilemma is where to start? Catherine solves that problem here in this one, easy to use book. It combines the information from her first two books on the topic: Da Vinci: His Life and His Legacy and Doing Da Vinci for Kids. She gives you the factual information you need, and lays out a plan for teaching the topic - whether you have one class period, ten, or more. She divides the information into chapters based on the many aspects of his life: Leonardo the Mathematician, Leonardo the Architect, Leonardo the Military Advisor, Leonardo and the Horse, Leonardo and Human Anatomy, and more. She includes the factual information, ideas for hands on-activities on many of them, several word searches and more. There is also a lapbook on Leonardo da Vinci that can serve as a great introduction to him, and a time-line game that makes a wonderful review of his life and his legacy. If you are looking for a simple to use, all inclusive way to do a unit study on Leonardo da Vinci, this is all you will need In addition to including all of Da Vinci: His Life and His Legacy and Doing Da Vinci for Kids, this book includes most of Catherine's booklet, Exploring Da Vinci's Last Supper, and excerpts from her first three historical novels on him, Leonardo the Florentine, Leonardo: Masterpieces in Milan, and Leonardo: To Mantua and Beyond. Those three novels are available separately or in one volume as The Life and Travels of Da Vinci Trilogy. Those novels make great read alouds for younger students, or can be enjoyed by older students and adults alike. |
