Currently work in the Youth Justice Service developing programmes of intervention for young people in the service.
Past experience working as a teacher of Art and Graphics in a young offenders institute, teacher in alternative provision education specialising in SEMH & SEND, and mainstream secondary teacher of Design Technology and Art & Design.
I pride myself on creating visually appealing resources with interesting content that appeals to young people who are disengaged from education.

I pride myself on creating visually appealing resources with interesting content that appeals to young people who are disengaged from education.
I created this resource for the delivery of the NCFE Level 1 Certificate in Art & Design (Unit 02).
The activity is very interactive, encouraging the learners to cut out the various examples of the formal elements within art and graphic design and then match them up in the boxes with the names & definitions.
There is also the answer sheet included, and this can be used as a display or laminated for reference in lessons.
I have used this resource with young offenders and it proved highly successful. It can also be used as a recap to check learner understanding.
A series of resources I designed for a KS3 (Year 8) mixed ability Art & Design class.
The theme of the scheme of work was African Plank Masks
Resources included: starter, two homework tasks, artist study and presentation with basic stages
Feel free to ask me any questions
I tended to group learners strategically to support with SEN, behavioural difficulties and to challenge those that are higher ability
A series of worksheets designed to encourage higher order thinking in the classroom
I currently use these with young offenders, however they would work just as well in a mainstream classroom
I designed them with a creative subject area in mind (given that I deliver Graphic Design), however they could work in other subjects as a creative and cross-curricular starter!
This is a series of worksheets and information sheets that I have created for the boys I work with in the Young Offenders Institute.
They are designed to be self-directed, but can also be used as part of classroom teaching.
This is perfect for learners studying Graphic Design, Art, or Design & Technology, at KS3-KS4.

I will be continually adding similar resources as I produce them.
**I have uploaded these as PDFs due to the large file sizes and to avoid any of the elements moving on the designs. If you require an editable copy, please email me nataliesheldon86@outlook.com **
These resources are from my PGCE. I taught Art & Design to a mixed ability Y8 group and chose to teach them about one point perspective and architecture.
I have included the SOW plus any resources I created, unfortunately I never got to fully see the unit through, however the group really enjoyed the topic.
Feel free to ask me any questions, I would love to hear from anyone that uses it!

These are a series of worksheets and information I have collated into a full project.
The theme of the project is MASKS & IDENTITY
Within the project, there are a number of mini sections relating to different mask types. I have uploaded these individually (see below) as they are perfect for cover / homework / one off lessons. I will also upload the full project once I have added the finishing touches.
Available worksheets:
Artists - Cindy Sherman / Marcus Coates / Haus-Rucker-Co
Cultural Map
Day of the Dead
Drill Music
Festima
Filipino Dinagyang
Halloween
Music
Superheroes
Symmetry
Venetian Carnival
Each upload contains a PowerPoint and PDF. I created the resources on a MacBook and sometimes Windows PowerPoint can open the fonts and formatting slightly off, so I wanted to offer both versions! You can also edit the PowerPoint to make it suitable for the students you teach.
Please feel free to ask any questions
This is one of a series of worksheets and factsheets I have created relating to Sneaker Collaborations.
Each worksheet & factsheet set will be uploaded and available individually, and I will also offer it as a bundle (which would make a great project in Art / Design Technology / Fashion / Graphic Design).
The sheets introduce lesser-known artists and designers, and feature on-trend sneaker styles.
These sheets would be great either as a project, cover work, homework tasks, or self-directed tasks! The possibilities are endless!
The worksheet combinations include:
Artists X Sneakers
Designers X Sneakers
Rappers X Sneakers
Brands X Sneakers > THIS RESOURCE
Extension Tasks
Feel free to ask me any questions.
This is a cover lesson I created due to me being off from school.
It is aimed at KS3 students, either in Art & Design or Design & Technology.
The theme is Camille Walala and Memphis Design, with rebranding.
I know how stressful cover lessons can be to create when you are not well, so hopefully this will help!
The PowerPoint contains a school specific teaching tool (purple zone, which is designated independent time to work). Please feel free to modify as you see fit!
Any questions please ask.

A series of worksheets I have produced to develop learner knowledge of the influences and contexts surrounding the creation of graphic design and art.

Feel free to ask any questions.
