This is a great resource to suit KS3. I use this in yr 7 where the students are very aspirational and work well as a group to deliver an excellent sculptural project at the end which at times is one of the most difficult elements to implement specially in yr 8 or 9. Students will practice the basics of pencil and shading, water colour and compositional work. In a fantastic set of activities which you can extend on to if you please. Homework tasks, starters and plenary ideas included. Enjoy!

Showing development within your art can be one of the most difficult and yet important things to do when approaching A Level subject Art and Design or other a BTec course. Here is a very visual with lots of samples compilation of great development ideas and execution. It’s about to show your journey, being cohesive and consistent.

This is a perfect explanation for students to know exactly what to add to each of the four sheets of their IGCSE Art project. It doesn’t matter how many sample work you show them when it comes to putting it down to paper students are very reluctant to choose, add glue, finish… so this is a very specific step by step drawing visual of each page. so they won’t have any excuse to miss anything. It finally got mine there.

Here you’ll find a series of 3 tasks to develop understanding of Japanese artthrough 6 or more lessons as you desire.

At A Level it can be overwhelming to know what to do to and assure you have all the elements to progress satisfactorily and excel! I focus on the Edexcel Art and Design Course but this work can be used for Cambridge or other course providers. Students can have a tendency to put off annotations thinking that these can be filled in at a later stage. Absolutely not! as they forget what they felt, thought, envisioned, and the viewer, reader too will feel lost where the actual artistic work might be very good, the momentum is lost! The project won’t have a good flow either…annotations serve to plan and advance, they are a key element of the progress. So here are few tips I have picked up along, yes, the course provider’s guide can be vague so I’ve made this presentation with very specific guidance and examples of work too. The assessment form has been added too. I hope you and your students find them useful and please do give me five stars feed back if that is the case. Otherwise I also appreciate tips to improve my work so do comment. I always revise and to implement changes according to teachers observations. Enjoy!

Great resource to get your students working on movement and figure. Futurism can look complicated but it’s easily replicated. Will engage the students in the ability to create compositional designs of a complex nature. This in turn will boost their confidence, ever so lacking at times. From this resources other activities can be developed so you could work on these two artists/ movements of interest in a series of lessons. Futurism: Do the same with mechanical pieces. Opportunities for direct observation. Industrial Landscapes. Haring: Project of a wall painting in school space. Use acrylic decor paint.

there’s nothing worst than a yr 10 that is greatly skilled in the arts and has no idea about body volumes and structures. I teach mine early and this is a great resource to apply for those yr 9s to get them thinking in depth about human body, structures and movement. will also be suitable for GCSE and A level. as this is serious stuff. Challenging yes, but great resource which they’ll love. You can interpose activities related in each step of the learning. Enjoy!

One of the most neglected areas of Art is Figure knowledge and ability. Here is a fun resource to learn about figure and movement, not for the faint hearted, KS3 can do this and realize they can too draw movement. Futurism is a great movement even interesting today. Series of lessons.
