(0)
Overview of Lesson Starter Activity Pupils to read the information the sheet on their tables and will write down three key facts about the painting. The pupils will have a few minutes to summarise the information on their table’s fact sheet. They will pick out three main points about the painting they have been given and this will be shared when the painting is introduced in the story. Later on in the lesson, once the painting is introduced, the teacher will ask a particular table to give the rest of the class three facts about the painting. Each table will be learning about one out of the five paintings. Teaching and Learning Activities The teacher will read a short story to the class which is entitled: Katie and the British Artists. She will read through the book and stop the story when a new painting is introduced. The table who has summarised that painting’s factsheet, will then relay three facts about the painting to the rest of the class. Once the story is finished, the class will be able to ask any questions that they have. They will also be asked which painting was their favourite and why. The day’s task will then be introduced: pick a painting we have discussed and draw yourself inside of the painting. There will be five paintings to choose from, with each one being mentioned in the story. The pupils will be told that the focus of this lesson is on their drawing skills. They need to draw in the style of the artist they choose by replicating their work. They also need to decide where in their drawing they will place themselves and how this may affect the focus of the picture.
