Need a quick, engaging cover lesson for your KS3 art students?
Keith Haring is a fantastic artist to teach about a pattern artist.
Pack includes:
1 x worksheet with instructions on how to draw a character in the style of Keith Haring.
2 x pages with images of his characters and design elements that students can include in their own designs.
Once students have completed the initial worksheet, instruct them to create their own designs on a blank sheet of paper using the 2 pages of images as inspiration.
This resource is ideal for trainee teachers completing their PGCE/SCITT/similar courses or their NQT/ECT folder.
Each page has the teacher standard outlined along with ideas for evidence!
These can be inserted into plastic dividers that have a cover sleeve and used as covers/dividers within evidence standards folders.
This 1-hour long lesson teaches KS3 or KS4 students to create colourful prints using polystyrene tiles in the style of Keith Haring.

You will need to provide:
A5 sized paper (to print onto)
Yellow marker (to draw onto the polystryne - make sure students draw lightly)
Biros (to draw over the yellow drawing and etch into the polystyrene)
A5 Polystyrene tiles (to use a printing block)
Block printing ink
Printing rollers
Aprons

This lesson introduces students to what portraits are, why do artists paint them and some famous examples.
There is a worksheet and printouts for students to use. They need to analyse a famous portrait (either Frida Kahlo, David Hockney, Francis Bacon or Pablo Picasso)
Resource / worksheet for a Cubism project - used as a cover lesson but could be used as an extension task or main task.
Please note: students will require viewfinders, these can be made as part of the lesson (see my make a viewfinder resource) or you can have these prepared ahead of time.
A great exercise to get students thinking about the different pieces of a “pie” or “pizza” that makes up who they are.
I have used this activity as a starter activity for students to explore different parts of their identity.
This is a great game to play at the end of a colour theory lesson or colour theory scheme of work.
Each student gets a bingo card. I use the link below and screen share it to my board. Whatever colour it lands on, the students can then cross that one off. I will ask a random student a colour theory related question also (E.g if it lands on pink: How does you make pink? with what two colours? OR if it lands on blue: what type of colour is blue? Is it a primary or tertiary colour?)
If you are super organised, you can give them a prize if they get the question right.
Whoever is first to cross off all colours wins a prize at the end (sweets or a homework pass etc.)
