"Kinder Art" is included in capability 4, “Creating with ICT” and provides teachers with multiple creative art lessons for Early Stage 1 and Stage 1. It allows teachers to share ideas with each other about art. It not only includes the art lessons, but teaching experiences and tips from teachers who have taught the lessons. Being a web 2.0 resource, it is possible for teachers to incorporate the use of the internet in their lesson by showing them the artworks they are doing directly on the screen. It also allows teachers to collaborate. (Hew & Cheung, 2012). One downfall to this resource is that it is only for stage 1 classrooms.
