13 56 Art and culture 13.4 Focus on form and structure Adjectives or adverbs? Read the text below and insert the adjectives provided in the right form (adjective or adverb). Child art, like most child behaviour, is 1 (direct) and uncensored. Young children don’t evaluate their work – they paint 2 (free) and with pleasure, enjoying the 3 (fine) and gross motor experience of moving paint over paper and watching lines, shapes and colours come to life. Do you remember seeing a photograph that impressed you immensely? Perhaps it was a 4 (famous) photograph or 5 (simple) a family snapshot that captured the richness of a special moment. Visual images communicate emotions and complexities that words cannot. The ability to communicate 6 (non-verbal) is 7 (particular) important for children. Art is a powerful tool that gives children the ability to express their thoughts and emotions long before they can 8 (full) express themselves with words. Once you acknowledge that art is a language, the importance of respecting a child’s artwork becomes 9 (obvious) . It’s far better to view a child’s art 10 (slow) and with quiet interest before making any comments.
