Abstract
The present study is a continued research into teacher’s utterance in arts and crafts・art classes. This research empirically clarifies the characteristics of arts and crafts classes and art classes at different school stages like schools of elementary, junior and high schools through the comparative analysis of teacher’s utterance. As a result of comparing the three subject classes, it is confirmed that the concepts handled in classes become abstract and advanced as the school age goes up. At the same time, a lot of utterances of teachers who relate to concrete materials and tools are seen although they respond to what children want to express in arts and crafts classes in elementary schools. Whereas, in the classes of junior high schools, a lot of utterances of teachers are found to encourage problem solving in students with a focus of attention to formative perspectives and in high school art classes, this research has found the equality is important when teachers are involved with groping for the egos of students in the mid-term of the young.
