Healy, Loretta I.
Young Children, v56 n3 p28-30 May 2001
Describes how one teacher helped preschool children draw. Shows how she guided a 4-year-old to use stencils to draw fish independently, helped children use their knowledge of shapes to guide their drawing of animals, and guided children to draw what was important to them. Asserts that helping children to express their ideas independently in drawing nurtures their creativity. (KB)
