This is a standardisation test for KS 3 testing drawing skills. You will need to as a teacher to resource the following for students: Year 7 Thick rope tied up, Year 8 Piece of fabric square with a peg or/and ribbon or a paintbrush to replace peg, Year 9 Xmas baubels or large spoons that have a reflection. This did not cost too much to put together for a yearly assessment. Year 7: Rope drawing - looking at the ability to create volume with tone and then to add in the pattern lines of the rope texture with the volume effect. Some students are able to capture good line patterns showing good design skills and line qualities. More able students are able to capture the volume. Year 8: Peg/large paintbrush and Fabric drawing - This is an exercise in capturing the volume, pattern and shading and accurate perspective drawing of the peg. Some students are able to show this more accurately and can show good tonal variations and the illusion of the 3D form in the peg and the brush. The lovely use of colour in the fabric supports students with strong design skills and pattern Year 9: Self identity drawing a portrait in a spoon or a bauble supports a theme on Self identity in year 9 and students can re-fine their skills in drawing themselves carefully in a bauble. Looking at volume and accurate tonal shading to draw a sphere with the distorted self portrait. Students enjoy capturing themselves having learnt about portrait drawing they can begin to excel in trying to create an illusion of themselves.

A short glossary list of words and students to choose the correct answers. These can be printed and cut up so students could match the correct term.

Students are developing an understanding of tonal values and 3D forms and looking at markmaking, and a range of tones and depth of tones. • Students reflect on what is a shape, and how to turn this into a 3D form and look at ways to do this with some key vocabulary terms. • Develop an understanding of how to use charcoal and chalk. • Students on a planning sheet will need to develop their mark making skills to enable them to shade using tones and students will look at various ways to use line techniques to create tone: stippling, hatching, cross hatching, scumbling, contour hatching. • Students then will look at the lighting of a 3 D form and how the shadow is thrown. • Students will practice a tonal range on a geometric shape. Students will then work in a group and each student to draw a geometric shape which can be put together into the fantasy figure composition based on the Surrealism Picasso figures. Examples given of the geometric standing figures of Picasso, De Chirico and Desmond Morris. Students follow the powerpoint using chalk and charcoal and explore mark making techniques to start. Then students look at the tonal contrasts and begin to develop a geometric shape. Each child to do a different geometric shape and in so doing build a figure of the shapes. Reflection and Evaluation Activate Prior Knowledge: Students to complete the questions on slide 2 on a large A2 sheet on what they know about a shape/form/3d. Questions on powerpoint/sheet per child. Ask students to come to the board to write down the answers. Ask students about charcoal and get them to explore mark-making on large sheet. Understand how to use charcoal and chalk. Playfully begin to develop their use of line (mark-making) and tone (contrasts and lighting) by using the chalks and charcoal. To follow teacher demonstration on the large A1 sugar paper. Draw out the surrealism fantasy stick figure composition made up of geometric shapes and then each child will begin to start shading their form. Final Evaluation: What is creative about the work on Show? How can we improve any of the work on Show? Who has excelled in their work today? And Why? If we had to evaluate the outcome – what work shows creativity, imagination and, an attempt to truly achieve success in outcome today?. Dismiss class

There is one powerpoints - this focuses on the St. George images and on Marc Chagall. In the project students use their imagination and to draw dragons and St. George’s battle. Students look at the Stained Glass artist Marc Chagall and then make up their St. George story on paper to transfer to black paper. There are instructions and worksheets. Students will need to use a stanley knife and safety working with blades is imperative for this project. Students need to have very simple designs and stylise their drawings into basic shapes. Therebis also a section om using a computer to make a symmetry pattern. WEEKLY Plan Two lessons weekly 7 weeks to 1/2To look at examples of St George and the Dragon and to draw out one’s own St. George and Dragon picture. 1/2. To look at examples of Stained Glass windows and look at the artist Marc Chagall. 3/4 To simplify the designs of St. George and the Dragon into thick lines and shapes to transfer onto black paper with chalk. 5 /6 To trace designs onto black paper shapes and begin to cut the negative shapes around the lines. To simplify these lines one can take the students to a computer room and do a basic symmetry pattern and lay this over their drawing and students begin to simplify the shapes into geometric forms. 7 / 8.- To make up a sheet of tissue paper on plastic paper to put behind the black paper cut out. Tear or cut the tissue paper into shapes at random and just lay this down on plastic with PVA glue. When this is dry the tissue paper will peel off the plastic. 11 / 12 – To continue to draw into black paper and put together. 13 – Evaluation of project To design a picture of St. George and the dragon’ on paper using resources in the first powerpoint. To refine the details of the designs into simple outlines-Teachers could photocopy and enlarge details to help students. To look at the Stained Glass artist Marc Chagall (second powerpoint) and to think how they could use his style in their work To transfer designs to black paper and to cut the negative shapes around the lines using the stanley knife. To make a sheet of coloured paper on a plastic sheet using PVA glue and tissue paper.

This gives a brief outline of what is Post-impressionism and a detailed description of each of the artists, Van Gogh, Cezanne and Guaguin and how they changed the way we look at the world. Each of these artists were key influencers for the 20th Century art movements - Expressionism, Cubism and Fauvism. The slides explain how each artist interpreted their subject. It has a good set of examples of each art movement and gives a description on how the art movement came about and what its characteristics are. It also highlights the work of the Fauvist artists and explains what this movement was about.

This is a Modern Movements Art project. There are a set of powerpoints for each movement. Students make cupcakes in different Modern Movement Styles. This Powerpoint is on the FAuvism Style where students use bright colours of paint at random to capture their cupcake. The students first of all try to understand what is the Fauvism style and look at some examples and then try capture this style in a cup cake to make a cake stand in the end. Your Learning Objective was: To draw a detail of a Fauvist artwork To describe the style of Fauvism using key words. To write down when Fauvism occurred and who were the famous Fauvist artists To draw your own Fauvist style cup-cake using bright spontaneous colours of paint and bold outlines

This is a project on Modern Art Movements. There are a set of powerpoints online relating to this project. The aim is to ,make different objects in separate modern movement styles The task is to make a cup-cake in differnt modern movements and then to make a cake stand with all the different cup-cakes. This powerpoint is on making a pop art style cup cake using the flat colours, bright and outlined style of Pop Art. The students first try to understand the style in their books and then make the cup cake. See the other powerpoints for this cup-cake project: on the different Modern Art movements : - Cubism, Surrealism, Expressionism, Neo-impressionism These are the learning objectives for the project: To draw a detail of a Pop Art work To describe the style of Pop Art using key words. To write down when Pop art occurred and who were the famous pop artists To draw your own Pop Art style cup-cake To trace this into coloured paper and make a paper art collage of a cup cake.

This is a Modern Art Movements project where the students make different cup-cakes in the different Art modern movement Styles and then make a cupcake stand with all the different cakes in the different styles displayed. This is a powerpoint on the relief printing of Expressionist movement. The students use a polyprint block and make their own cupcake in this expressionist style and roll ink. The students first need to understand the style of the project and learn what the specific characteristics of Expressionism is: -the harsh agitated lines -angular marks and the -dark bright intense colour or just black and white woodcut prints of the Expressionist artists. This is part of a project of Modern movements where students do all the different styles: Neo-impressionism, Surrealism, Cubism -etc. See the other powerpoints. Learning Objectives: To draw a detail of an Expressionist work or use the worksheets to colour in on Expressinism and in so doing develop an understanding of this ‘ism’ Worksheet to print off to describe the work ‘The Scream’ by Edvard Munch To describe the style of Expressionism using key words. To use the poloyprint and to make your own Expressionist black and white print of your cupcake in the style of the Expressionists.

This is part of a unit of work called Modern Movements - using cup cakes. This is the first lesson where students explore looking at what are the themes in historical art and how this relates to Modern Art This first powerpoint explores what is Art and looks at the various subjects of the past master paintings: Still-life, Landscape and Portraits. Students make a circular collage of examples of themes in Art.

Two slides - can be used as a Starter for students to match terms in art and definitions.

This powerpoint supports learning about different drawing techniques in the classroom and using a Feather as a topic. Feathers are not such difficult objects to draw and students can use this to explore a variety of techniques. Student draw the feather, in pen, pencil, oil pastel and wax and crayon. Students also do an artist study and present the work of an artist who uses Feathers as their main topic. Students learn to use a variety of techniques Overall plan; Presenting an artist study page: on Chris Maynard Drawing with Oil pastel and learning various techniques to draw a Peacock feather: Sgrafitto, Tonal work, Blending Making patterns with felt tips into a feather using zentangle patterns Making a wax and scratch, that is, using wax crayons and oil pastel and to scratch out the feathers Furthermore the students after exploring these techniques are asked to make their own very Dream catcher. Students look at variety of different Dream catchers and go ahead to independently present their own. There are examples of different dream catchers but also different wishes and needs one would want if one could wish for these things. The powerpoint shows examples of all the objects what one could need. Students soirce and collect poctures of all their needs. Students can then put their final dream catcher together creatively and be innovative and unique about this.

This is a full unit of work on Still life. It starts with an appreciation of what was before there was Modern Art and students draw a mindmap in their book. There is a wealth of pictures of still-life objects to draw from so teachers can just copy the slides for students to work from. Students will need to do a mark-making exercise in pencil and pen and complete two drawings of the objects. Students then look at how to use chalk and charcoal on black paper and do a study of Still-life in the Dutch era by looking at the ‘vanitas still-life’s’ and do a skull drawing using the chalk and charcoal. Students will also need to practice markmaking in this technique. Students then go on to look at Pop Art and what happened with the development of photography and the influence of this consumer style on the art world. There is a study of Pop Art and students will be able to have an opportunity to look at what makes up Pop Art. The students need to make up a Pop art style, coloured collage in coloured paper or use felt tips to create an object in Pop art style. There is on this powerpoint a wealth of objects for students to draw from and this can be printed off for students. Finally students put this together into a finished still life arrangement and there are lots of student examples for you to use. I hope you enjoy this project.
