The Teaching of Art Related to the Home Suggestions for content and method in related art instruction in the vocational program in home economics

"The Teaching of Art Related to the Home" by Florence Fallgatter is an early 20th-century guide designed to integrate art education into home economics, focusing on applying aesthetic principles to everyday living. The publication aims to equip educators with methods for teaching art in vocational programs, with an emphasis on home-related tasks such as selecting furnishings and clothing, and aims to empower young women to create beautiful and functional homes by highlighting the importance of relevant and practical applications of art, particularly in under-resourced rural schools where art education is often insufficient, and preparing women to make informed aesthetic decisions as homemakers.
