DRAW ANYTHING -- (discover self)

This resource is a single page exercise aimed at encouraging a fun way to explore pen and pencil. Aimed at any age group, this exercise can either be fun lesson filler or a more experimental and indicative exercise helping the teacher to understand the pupils capabilities.

The exercise encourages some liberty by allowing the pupil to draw anything but the task must be completed by a verbal and written reflection, once the work is done the pupil must display and talk to the class about the work it self.

Supposedly the work will lead to a ‘doodle’ or a drawing of a particular thing that the pupil is familiar with but the exercise will display a good insight into the pupil and their interests / abilities.

Ideal for year 7’s, or new pupils or teachers…
Ideal for gaining insight into the pupils capabilities which can then lead to constructive guidance and advice regarding relevant art related interests…

The work should help the pupil understand the ideas of developing subject matter and context to creating works. The exercise can also be done in reverse where the pupil writes about an image and then draws the image afterwards.
