The presentation includes lesson entry tasks / plenaries and exit tasks, examples of student work, homework tasks throughout. There are printable resources on slides 1-12 with the Pop Culture images I used in lessons. There is an artist research information slide that can also be printed (slide 43) There are 124 slides in total.

Track your students progress for each assessment object, input marks for each AO and see how many marks they need to pick up to move grades. Show it to the students to enable them to see what they need to improve, it is a powerful and motivating way to keep students engaged! There are 2 spreadsheets, one for marks and the other: a colour coded tracker. I put this up at the beginning of each GCSE lesson to help the students see what they need to do. It works! Please note that as the grade boundaries change you may need to alter some of the formulas.

This resource introduces children to the colourful work of African artist Edward Tingatinga. This Tanzanian artist was completely self taught and created paintings inspired by the images found on mud huts. His work is bright and colourful and many say it has a simple childlike quality to it. This resource will introduce children to the artist and what is now known as Tingatinga art. They will then go on to practice some of his techniques before creating their own piece of Tingatinga style artwork. This resource includes: Introduction to Tingatinga art presentation Introduction to Edward Tingatinga presentation Art practice instruction presentation Art activity instruction presentation Templates Lesson plan I have successfully used this resource with children in years 1, 2 and 3. It could also be used with younger and older age groups depending on ability. Minimal supplies are needed for the activities- paper, pencils, erasers and something to colour with - paint could also be used if you are feeling brave!

This simple textiles art project is ideal for teaching younger students as it is really short but engages students by giving them lots of choice in their work. Students love the bright colours, the different shaped stitches and, of course… the sweet, sugary subject! Students learn basic hand stitches: running, back, chain, French knot and have the option to learn more if they can. The outcomes are so fun and students loved using the felt tips on the fabric. The presentation includes lesson starter activities, plenaries, reflections etc. and breaks down the steps into really simple to follow instructions. There are links to appropriate artists and links to free handouts to use too.
