In this unit we will learn about the different Elements of Art. The elements of art are the building blocks of an artwork: colour, line, shape, form, value, texture, and space. They are the tools artists use when creating an artwork. Each of these art fundamentals are closely related and many of them overlap. When combined, they produce a complete artistic vision.
We will communicate our understanding of these elements of art by working collaboratively to create an Elements of Art Poster. We will explore what 7 key elements are and how these elements make up and create a sense of space in the picture in combination with the principles of design to create a piece of artwork.
These are the skills you will be able to do by the end of the unit:
Identify the 7 elements of art
Use a variety of materials to demonstrate your understanding of the elements
Work collaboratively in a team to create a poster demonstrating the different elements of art and their key characteristics
Communicate our thoughts and findings using a common language

Throughout their learning journey in art and design children should become familiar with these 8 elements of art (line, shape, form, colour, value, texture, space and pattern) to enable them to understand the subject and to be able to express and communicate their ideas, thoughts and feelings about art. This presentation explains the eight elements and can be used throughout key stages 1 & 2.
