Stop: It's Pop [Art]! Fine art version

(0)
This is a complete 4-month unit for Key Stage 3 and Year 10 which can be used as a whole Term project. It introduces Pop Art and focuses on the artist, Andy Warhol. Like Pop Art, it uses consumerist objects such as junk food as a firsthand resource. This resource forms the basis for the whole unit. The unit looks at 4 sub-projects: drawing, design, printmaking and painting. This could be taught as one cohesive project or used as separate units. Skills and ‘how to’ are included in each sub-project, except for the printing project which is a field trip. Quality teacher and student examples are included for explanation and demonstration, along with key words to assist EAL students. Scheme of Work, extensive “Do now” starters activities, vocabulary list, mark scheme and worksheets are all included.
Steps of Abstraction: Shell

Steps of Abstraction: Shell

(0)
Using nature as inspiration, this sculpture project takes 7-8 weeks to complete and is therefore perfect as a half term project. It can be used for Key Stage 3 or IGCSE/GCSE students. It begins by using a common first-hand resource, shells, as the design inspiration. There are a total of 4 different final projects to choose from which depend on available resources – great for those without a proper sculpture studio. The shell form is broken down into a process of abstraction which is comprised of simple steps using line, form and space as the main elements. Process work is highly regarded as means to scaffold the project and help students see the value in each step. Excellent student work is used to explain each step of the process with completed examples included at the end. A visually impactful PowerPoint which is great for English as an additional language speakers. Included: marking scheme and vocab, worksheets, design criteria and level descriptors.

KS3 Art & Design: AFL checklist and vocabulary Term 3

(0)
This resource contains all my KS3 Design and Technology projects for Term 3. It includes: a checklist, all the new vocabulary words that students will encounter during the term, What Am I Learning Toward (W.A.L.T), Mark Scheme for each unit according to three major skills: Observation and analysis (OA), Experimentation and development of ideas (ED) and Realisation and evaluation (RE) and Schemes of Work. I ask students once a month to review their checklist in order for them see if they are behind in any projects or have missed any projects when absent. The vocabulary list serves as an end of unit ‘test’ to see how well the students have assimilated the new words.

Jewellery box in the style of Faberge Egg

(0)
This resource is a complete 6-9 week KS3 unit on the planning and making of a bespoke jewellery box, in the style of a Fabergé Egg. It outlines and explains how students are to follow the design process in order to make a unique and individual ‘box’ using readily available classroom materials. The PowerPoint outlines the steps to make this ‘box’, while introducing the design process to year 7 students. It can also easily be used for Years 8 and 9 students too. As part of the design process, students will investigate and research the background of the project; specify a list of requirements; produce a design that meets the specifications; draw annotated sketches; build their own egg; learn to mold paper clay and finally evaluate the product. This resource contains quality teacher and student examples. This resource is EAL friendly as language is clear and is used in conjunction with visual imagery.
