You're right it's for Intermediate learners and it's got much technical vocabulary. But it's a fantastic resource to learn by playing. Kids can explore Matisse's paintings in a funny way and new words are very clearly explained. They can learn a bit of French , too. Activities are short enough to keep kids interested and they're linked to connect pictures and the way Matisse thought ART . Finally they can make their own masterpiece. It's a good excuse to summarize the whole lesson. Thanks Larry !!! Dear Larry:
