Dear Art Educators,

I got a request for lesson plans for Impressionism for elementary. Send me
your ideas with an image or two and I will post to the site on an
artists/art styles page. If you have a lesson on your site - post the URL to
the list. (Many of Makio's student landscapes remind me of Impressionism
http://kawama-web.hp.infoseek.co.jp/Sketch.htm and
http://ukitasho.hp.infoseek.co.jp/Landscape.htm)

Here are some lessons I found online that you may need to embellish
Not much details on these:
