Book excerpt: Viewpoints, a book in the Multiage Curriculum Kit for Grades 4-6, asks students to examine the concept of viewpoints from many different and exciting angles. From the history of child labor laws, to optical illusions, students will learn to consider other perspectives as they learn the process of formal debate. In one particular activity, students examine the different ways that viewpoints can be expressed through art, such as with linear perspective, orientation, orthogonals, and materials. The books in Prufrock's Multiage Curriculum Kits employ a differentiated, integrated curriculum based on broad themes. This all-in-one curriculum helps teachers save planning time, ensure compliance with national standards, and most importantly, pique their students' natural excitement and interest in discovery.
