This Child Development Associate (CDA) training module enables CDA interns to introduce art experiences into the preschool classroom. The module guides the intern toward developing skill in helping children appreciate and communicate through art, music, dance and drama. At a satisfactory level of proficiency the CDA intern will be able to plan and implement an art lesson, activity or environmental arrangement. Both teacher's and trainee's materials are provided. The teacher's materials consist of pre-test directions, an answer key, and directions for the resource person and field supervisor. The student's materials include a pre-test, an activity list and activity directions. Nineteen lessons are provided in three sections: (1) Exposing, Appreciating and Communicating through Expressive Experiences for Young Children, (2) What Does Appreciating Art, Music and Drama Mean? and (3) Communicating Through Art, Music and Drama. A brief overview discusses expressive experiences for young children. (Author/RH)
