This is a full medium term plan for sewing worry monsters. It could serve as Art or DT. The plan includes full lessons; differentiation for extending greater depth children and supporting SEND children; activities to complete; learning objectives and ideas for how to sew the worry monster. It’s a great activity for year 5/6 children when they first move into their new year group and it’s something they can keep.

A unit of art - 3/4 lessons long based around the title ‘Who I am.’ Children learn how to sketch self-portraits using photos of themselves; practice printing using different medium and work on their colour mixing and pairing skills. This culminates in a multi-media piece whereby they use all of their skills to create a picture of themselves with a layered background of 2 tone colours and prints with their self-portrait. This links well to PSHE and to the book Wonder.
