This resource is ideal for teaching children about Aboriginal art and using patterns and symbols.
Children will first learn about Aboriginal x-ray art, complete a worksheet where they practice creating Aboriginal style patterns and motifs and then be guided to create their own piece of Aboriginal style artwork based on a fish.
This is a full resource that includes:
Lesson plan
Introduction to Aboriginal x-ray art presentation
Worksheet (differentiated)
Fish templates
X-ray examples
Activity instruction presentation
I have used this successfully with years 1 and 2 and children have produced really nice artwork that can be hung on the wall.
The main activity is written for children to use crayons but, chalk, pastel or paint could also be used. Otherwise minimal supplies are needed- pencils, erasers and black paper.
Another more general Aboriginal Art presentation is also available https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-11902001
A brief PowerPoint presentation to introduce Aboriginal art.
The presentation touches on origin, style and purpose along with mentioning how colours, patterns and symbols are used in Aboriginal art.
Suitable for KS1 and KS2 but, it could be used with any age group where a simple introduction to Aboriginal art is required.
