This drawing placemat is designed to be used to support and structure learning around drawing. Supporting mark making, tonal drawing and coloured pencil drawing.

The presentation includes the key elements that artist research should include, Clear and creative title - hints and tricks how to create. Images of the artists work - hints and tricks on how to present. Your own response - hints and tricks on how to create. Annotations - hints and tricks on how to layout.

This document is designed to be for students to use to track how they feel over the duration of a project and to reflect upon at the end. This tracker has space for the teacher to write what the project, out comes and key skills are. This is a five week tracker but can easily be altered to make longer. The purpose of this document is to enable a student to develop their understanding of the correlation between how confident they feel in a project and their attainment, which in turn will support the teacher in supporting the students development to the best of their ability. For more nervous students this is also an opportunity to document how they feel in a non intrusive way. I have used this across Key stage 3 and 4 and it has worked wonderfully. For trainee teachers ... I have designed and used this for my own PGCE in Art and Design for part of an assignment where we had to design a resource. This has also been used in two different schools with success in meeting standards and demonstrating progress. A good attribute for evidence folders and proof of reflective teaching,
