Explain that art is grouped together in “families” known as genres. Each genre has things unique to it that all art in that family share. We are going to look at the five genres here and sort each picture into the correct genre. 2. Take the first genre name tag and explain what is unique about it. Then show the child an example of it from the four smaller art pieces. Help them identify and lay the others out below it. Continue with each genre, explaining it and then sorting until all have been placed. 3. Allow the student to peruse the art and each genre until they are ready to start the exercise again or put it away.
