II. Read the passage and decide whether the sentences are true (T) or false (F).
The soothing process of painting is often interesting to young children. The pleasant feeling of painting over and over, possibly using two brushes or their fingers is important. We need to encourage the experience where it interests the child, not the adult. As children develop, they become more focused on creating representations and expressing ideas. Young children need large pieces of paper as well as a variety of brush sizes to experiment with. Colour mixing provides endless discoveries. Painting areas should support the child’s physical abilities. Easels should be at correct height. Move chairs from tables to allow children to stand and paint if they wish. Very young children can be held in a lap or sit on the floor with an adult. The idea is to make the child feel most comfortable when painting.
1. Children love painting because it is soothing.
2. Children can only paint with brushes.
3.Adults should be encouraged to love painting as well.
4.Children love discovering the colours.
5.Very young children should be with adults when learning to paint.
