This lesson was created for the beginning of year 9/10 GCSE art. Students develop a range of drawing skills using different media and surfaces. The lesson is broken down into different activities and includes starter activities, examples and graded success criteria using the new 1-9 system. The lesson was graded outstanding when I delivered it and students were able to produce some excellent outcomes. Enjoy!!

2 lessons based on the topic of positive and negative space for the purpose of lino printing. Activities include discussions and info on identifying positive and negative space for lino printing, mark making and observational drawing tasks, video and demonstrations, mark making for lino, planning for cutting, examples and discussion slides and a homework task.

This is a resource I created for a yr10 GCSE painting project, using Edie Nadelhaft as a starting point for studying flesh tones and painting techniques. The presentation acts as a step by step guide to painting, and covers skills such as layering tones to create depth, basic modulation and brushwork. This project spans across 3-5 lessons and serves as a good introduction to painting with acrylics and exploring flesh tones. Visual examples and easy to follow steps included. I have also added the first lesson which introduces mixing flesh tones, colour swatches and briefly touches on modulation. Please leave a review and check out my other resources!

Can be adapted to suit different titles or topics and is also good as a general template for well structured art lessons. Enjoy!!
