Written by a Senior exam board Moderator. The GCSE Art exam (Component 2) is almost upon us. Students will be heading off on Easter holidays and we will be left hoping that they complete their preparatory work. These advice letters might help guide them. 3 different letters provided as Word docs for complete editing freedom.

This video demonstration shows students how to draw a building using 2 point perspective. An ideal resource for sharing with students at home during lockdown. Equally suitable for use in the classroom. 3 minute run time.

Do you want to speed up your marking and feedback to students? This little resource is a lifesaver. Simply print them out, tick the relevant statements in the “Areas of quality” and “Areas for development” columns and stick in their sketchbooks. There is also space for free writing or typing. Provided as a Work document so that you have complete freedom to amend the statements. Hope it helps!

Why not praise your students with this Christmas “thank you” colouring certificate? A high quality image that can’t be printed onto paper or thin card and handed to deserving students in the last week of term. They can either take it home to colour or do it in school as an end of term activity.

Two fun activities for KS2 and 3. A step by step guide to drawing Santa Claus and a collection of photocopiable colouring sheets depicting Santa and his elves.

This Unit of Work provides 4 linked lesson plans that guide teaching of skills and techniques associated with color and abstraction. Each lesson plan is broken down into how the work will be assessed, the structure of the lesson, cross curricular links, homework and resources required. Also included for each lesson is a photocopiable information sheet for students, which is written in a student friendly manner. This resource is ideal for Middle School students.

Get ready for Easter with this coloring book. 20 original images suitable for younger children. A great way you get your classroom decorated!
