This unit of work lasted 4 week, or a whole day every week. It includes an overall map of the activities and a set of planning for the four weeks. The power point shows what we did and how it all came together at the end in a large display and a collection of handmade books. This unusual topic title, brought up some good opportunities to talk about tragedy through the Artworks, and the effect of design on the daily lives of us as humans.

This power point shows children's work around the theme of the Theatre. It includes backdrop ideas for a production and making props for the show. It also shows some ideas for a dramatic display, which could be used to introduce a topic and trigger discussion and ideas.

This power point show the work of a group of children from two classes who studied William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement in a four days project. We considered wallpaper, fabric designs and printing repeating patterns. We also looked at how the Victorians used decoration and patterns on surfaces, including china ware. We designed and made our own individual sketchbook to show our ideas and design objectives, and to present the cultural thinking at the time of the Victorians.

This set of resources include a four week planning sequence and power point of the dioramas that the children made. When all put together they made a vibrate display on a wall, and create an atmosphere evocative of the rainforest environment.

A dramatic display for a wonderful time in human history. The colour and the forms reflect the concern with beauty, meaning and simplicity. Ancient Greece- enlightened and forward thinking. Plenty of negative bits too... the women issue... not good...

This power point givers some ideas for this great theme. The planning was done using paper and pen, so I will have to upload it another way..!! Do you get tired doing the same things in the same way all the time..?

This is a working document to highlight and pinpoint what needs to be done , analysed and provided for the Art topics for the Primary school year. What is needed in one area, will also affect other aspects of the provision. It is helpful to coordinate that whole vision for the immediate future and ensure excellent provision of Art skills and concepts.

This series of resources includes a mapping document of the whole pic. Also a series of planning for 5 weeks. A summary of the work produced is shown on the power point.

This power point celebrates the work completed at the end of a project focusing on drawing. We explored seeing and perceiving and experimented with different ways to record our thoughts and ideas. We took ourselves as starting points and produced these innovative and insightful drawings using charcoal and some chalk. Adults were also offered opportunity to take part in Drawing inset day. The work was put on display to enjoy looking at what we all had done and accomplished.
