    The Japanese "Kanji"--"Ijō" and "Ika" are used, individually or together, sometimes with carelessness on writing as well as on speaking. Originally, "I[以] means "with" or "together". For example, "5 Ijō [5以上]" means 5 or more, not meaning "more than 5" . Likewise, "5 Ika [5以下]" being not "less than 5" but "5 or less". Students learn notations of inequality in the second grade Math class, the Japanese "Kanji"-"I[以]" in the fourth grade Domestic Language and the combination use of "Ijō" and "Miman [未満] (meaning "less than")" in the sixth grade Math. However, while they grow up under the conditions of careless talks of people around them due to TV, radios, magazines and so on, correct knowledges they acquired in school education are apt to become fuzzy. It is very important for school education to emphasize that "Ijo" and "Ika" should not be used at the same time. In addition, it is hopeful that students should be instructed to learn the combination use of "Ijō" and "Miman (= under)" and also the one of "Cho [超] (= over)" and "Ika" , as is usually the case with legal words for practical use.

    Art education is divided into two types, an expression and an appreciation, in the province of contents of education. Activities of expression involves the fields of Formative Plays, Painting, Printing, Sculpture, Construction, Design, Handicraft. We can suppose the constructive method as one of activities of expression common to these fields. In this paper, I extracted the existence of constructive method from a relationship between a plastic art and art, and from the current of times of an art education by plastic art, and considered it. Moreover I expressed how to deal with the elements of art and design and a visual language. By means of them, I made clear the connection between two fields, expression and appreciation, and I attempted to unify these fields by the constructive method, on the basis of the traditional way of thinking that we understand the fields of expression and appreciation on an equal level. Consequently I proposed the systematicism of visual education and appreciation and comprehension by visual communication as the development of art education.

    We analyzed that any teaching-actions of teacher influenced children very strongly, through skin resistance responses of all children in the teaching-learning-process. As a result, we were able to summarize about strategy of teaching actions of teachers in the following six factors. 1. Expecting to respond or react to children. 2. Activating children through experiences, presentation of real things, teaching materials of video tapes, and OHP. 3. Stirring up the student's feelings of wonder and surprise through the teacher's actions and teaching materials. 4. Explaining new concepts and knowledge which children have never learned. 5. Stirring up the student's feeling through the use of humor. 6. Giving K ・ R to children.
