How would you like to have some relaxed plans for art and music appreciation this summer? I have pulled together six weeks' worth of ideas for you to use with your family. I have chosen an artist and a composer for you and put down some specific plans for listening, viewing, and follow-up for each.I have packaged them all up into a neat little PDF for you to download for free.
The plans introduce the music of Felix Mendelssohn and the paintings of Claude Monet in this mini-unit. The plans also include every print I suggest and you can view them in the PDF, online, or you can print them out if you wish. I have created simple artist biography and composer biography notebook pages for you to print out as well.
You can chose to use as much or as little of the plans as you wish. You can use them right now or file them away for later.
My hope is that once you get a taste of art and music appreciation this summer with your children that you will not want to give it up once you start back to school in the fall. My Harmony Fine Arts plans will be ready and waiting for any families that want to continue with your studies after you finish the six weeks' worth of art and music appreciation.
All you need to get started is to download the file, read the simple to understand instructions, gather a few supplies, and then enjoy the time with your family!
Here is the link to a free Lulu.com file for you to download:

I suggest these two CDs in the plans, but you can use any Mendelssohn music you have on hand.

Barb,
How very wonderful and generous of you! I've often thought of purchasing your Harmony Fine Arts plans before. Just wondering are they laid out very similiarly with notebooking pages etc.? Thanks again and for the info.
Barb,
Thank you so much for sharing this! I'm downloading it and linking to it over on my blog, so others can enjoy it too. I just bought a book on Monet, so I'm excited!
Edwena,
This summer art and music appreciation is in a totally different format than my normal HFA plans. If you are interested in seeing samples, please pop over to my website and click the samples tab and you will see how the plans differ from the summer plans.
Grade Four has generic notebook pages for the artists and Medieval and Renaissance Art and Music (grade six) has a generic notebook page for the artists and for the composers.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to email me anytime.
