Year 7/8 Colour Project

*This project was taught to YR7 students but could be used for YR8 if adapted accordingly. *

This resource provides at least 6 weeks worth of work (1 lesson per week) but it can easily be extended depending on how long you want to work on each task.

This resource includes:

• Powerpoint for all lessons
• Do now booklet
• Worksheets
• Artist reading comprehension task

Students will be introduced to and learn about colour theory, colour mixing through painting, an in depth artist research/comprehension task, artist copy and finally a chance for them to personally respond to the artist’s work.

Within this project, student’s are given the opportunity to present their work in sketchbooks/workbooks as the project progresses. Providing them with the ability to reflect on the work they have completed as they move through to the next task.
