This was a mini topic that I did with a Year 5/6 class but it would work throughout Key Stage 2. It spanned two afternoon sessions and could easily be lengthened to create more of a topic. Pupils discover the key features of Aboriginal art and then go on to explore and record their own ideas before producing a final Aboriginal-style piece. Plenty of opportunity is given to evaluate their own and others work.
The resource includes:
Teaching plans for two lessons
PowerPoint presentation (15 slides)
Simple pupil planning sheet
Aboriginal symbols reference sheet
The topic provides good coverage of the 2013 National Curriculum for Art and Design (links are highlighted in bold on the planning). Planning and resource sheets are Word documents and fully editable.
Makes for a lovely display at the end!

Aboriginal Australian Animals Outline
-Australia is home to an extraordinary variety of wildlife, and this captivating set of animals highlights many of them : Koala, Kangaroo,Echidna,Emu,Platypus,Dingo and Wombat…
You can use these australian animal templates as a life science extension activity when studying either wild or domesticated animals. The coloring pages can help your children learn to recognize and identify different animals. Children can then add the unique features of the animals to the templates. Once the masterpieces are finished, you can view them to check your students’ comprehension of animal characteristics.
Alternatively, why not use these animal coloring pages alongside your lessons to encourage your students to walk on the wild side and explore their creativity?
The Australian Animal Outline Templates are also a helpful way for you to encourage your students to work on different drawing techniques and build fine motor skills.
The completed pictures can then be proudly displayed around the classroom, placed in a science lab journal, or added to an art portfolio.

Prepared for the Eduqas GCSE Geography B 9-1 specification (and applicable to all other boards), with all resources provided and ready to teach straight away. My lessons are interactive and provide a variety of teaching and learning activities. This lesson is part of the ‘HIC Global Cities: Sydney’ scheme of work (available as a bundle) of fifteen lessons about Sydney.
This lesson examines the history of aboriginal peoples in Sydney and provides a historical context for the growth of the city. It uses a carousel activity to develop an understanding of the challenges that aboriginal people have faced and encourages students to relate these to contemporary aboriginal experiences. It also seeks to challenge prejudices on this matter.
This powerpoint uses a range of photographs found on the internet.
When I taught this lesson, I shared the images, talked about the range of animals which can be found in Australia and then laid out three long sheets of lining paper. Each child was given a thick paintbrush and a pot of paint (white, black, brown, orange, green, red and yellow).
The children walked around each sheet, making long snake-like patterns, surrounded by dots. Once the sheets had dried, they were used as backing paper for a display about Aboriginal Art.
I also gave the children a small canvas board. They planned their image and then painted an Australian animal - surrounded by concentric lines of differing colours.
I have used this within units on Creation stories and Our World units. I have worked with Art to create stories and Dot pictures, which the pupils really enjoyed. Presentation on background, beliefs, legends.
These lessons are part of a collection which look at different stories and cultures from around the world. It aims to develop reading skills and an appreciation for other cultures.
A collection of NAIOC Week editable templates to use in your child's portfolio/learning stories. Insert your own photos and write and edit your text. Print off and add to your portfolios.
If you’re after an easy way for your students to find out about the achievements of 21 iconic Indigenous Australians who’ve shaped history, this set of PowerPoint and Google™ slides that highlight their contributions to arts, science, culture, politics will be ideal.
The people in this set to show a broad range of contributions across various fields, from young and old, and from the past and present, to honour each person and to inspire our young people.
The text on the slides is editable and you can delete any slides you don’t need. I’ve also included a couple of blank slides so you can add your own photo/text for people you wish to include.
The slideshow can be used as a whole class at the start or end of the day, or during social studies/inquiry. Alternatively, it can be used independently, and can be accompanied by the banners, so students can write about a person for a class display. These can be attached to the wall or hung over string (and stapled or glued together).
