You can print these as posters or as postcards, just by adjusting the settings on the print page from whole page to multiple. The Challenge cards work really well with Year 11 when they are struggling to put into words why a piece of work by another artist has inspired them. They can choose their own level of challenge.

This resource can be used with my Schemes of Learning- Literacy and Numeracy are written into the Art Schemes of Learning with Art foci, as well as Assessment data for each task. (Schemes of Learning and Assessment data available soon).

T3each your students about shading. This presentation introduces students to the correct tools required, tonal scales, and how that all translates to good 3D rendering.

Teach your students how to mix primary and secondary colours. There are some catchy videos embedded in the presentation from youtube. The kids love it.

It is worth this just for the Burger! You can adapt and change the pieces, and its really cute. Kids love building their burger of facts. Anyway, there is a great unit of work in here that always builds great skills for students embarking on GCSE Art & Design. It allows for a trip (we do Birmingham Botanical Gardens, but Kew or anywhere decent will do), it allows for Artist research, good recording, and good experimentation. It then develops to allow student to bring something personal to the project (strong AO4) - themselves! I print this Powerpoint as a booklet and give it to them at the start of term. It means we can work through, pick up where we left off, and kids who want to run ahead can do so. I did the hard work, so that you don’t have to! :)

This test fits in with age expectation targets. There is a marksheet that you may download and adapt to your needs also, which stores this information and calculates progress in lessons again targets.

This marksheet allows for each task to be marked to three assessment objectives (like GCSE 1-3, but renamed acronym A R T, for Analysis, research and techniques). Students are marked on this sheet to 5 age expectations, but you can no doubt adjust them to suit. This marksheet fits with all my schemes of work for the entire Year 7. I also have Year 8 and 9 and available, but their marksheets are much more detailed. The other sheets are generated from the marksheets to be stickers to go into the students books. The comments are already added but fit with my current schemes of work, so you may wish to adjust them. You can just mail merge the doc from the A2L page of the marksheet every time you need to give feedback. Easy!

This is a 'what if' lesson, asking students to use first impressions and then discover if their first impression is the one they would trust when they analyse further information. It can be a verbal activity or a written task, or however you want it.
