This presentation contains 20 slides of resources for Educational Visits for GCSE and A-Level Art and Photography students. I have included help sheets, task sheets and examples for lessons / visits -that I have used to aid my teaching over the last 10 years.
Are you taking students to an art gallery? If so, this resource might help. It explains to students how to behave in a gallery setting and how to really get the best from the experience. A series of tasks ensure that students fully engage with the artwork and collect valuable information through note taking, photography and sketching that can then be expanded upon once back in the classroom. Ideal for Key Stage 3 and GCSE Art students. The resource is print friendly and can be given to students as a work book to use in the gallery. 17 pages.
<p>Planning an art gallery visit with your students? This resource might just help. A student friendly guide to getting the most out of a gallery visit. A 17 page workbook that guides students through how to behave in a gallery, how to explore and analyse the artwork, how to take notes and sketch details and how to interpret the artwork in order to develop their own art once back in the classroom. Easy to print and ideal for all exam level art students.</p>
<p>This is a list of the questions that were asked at the time of inspection in a Primary School setting. These were asked of the Art coordinator of the school plus another teacher.</p>
<p>Inspection was carried out July 2021. I hope this is useful.</p>
This worksheet has been designed for gallery visits. There is a space in the middle to make a sketch. It asks the following questions:<br />
<br />
Your Name<br />
Title of Artwork<br />
Name of Artist<br />
What have you looked at?<br />
What media has the artist used?<br />
what colours has the artist used?<br />
What kind of marks or techniques has the artist used?<br />
What kind of shapes and forms can you see?<br />
How does the artwork relate to other artworks in the exhibition?<br />
How does the artwork make you feel?<br />
<br />
The same worksheet is uploaded as a .jpg and pdf. I'm not sure why you can only see the top part of the pdf. When you download it, it is all there - I have checked!!<br />

Art of the American Soldier: Stories from the Soldiers encourages students to deepen their appreciation of war art through watching and
listening to veteran war experiences. Students are then asked to point out details in the artwork
they had not previously noticed before listening to the veteran war stories. Art of the American Soldier: Comparing and Contrasting Photography and Painting in War Art encourages students to use photography to analyze artwork for details regarding the historical context of 20th and 21st century wars and conflicts.
<p>Social story to help children to know what to expect at a visit to the dentist to ease any anxiety prior to their visit.</p>
<p>The point of a social story is to use a patient and reassuring tone to teach children about social situations in a way that can be easily understood. Social stories can be useful for any child who is struggling to understand a situation or concept or needs help to understand a social skill or social cue, expectations, perspectives, common responses or is troubled about an upcoming event but social stories are particularly useful for children on the autistic spectrum for whom social cues can be challenging and who often suffer anxiety if they do not know what to expect from a situation.</p>
<p>These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them.</p>
