This resource provides a step by step art project suitable for year 3, 4, 5 and 6 students. The photocopiable work book guides students through a range of fun, informative, creative processes. All tasks are related to the natural world and encourage students to engage with the environment. Tasks are "self differentiating" , meaning that students of all abilities can access the tasks and develop work at an appropriate level. Students are also introduced to a range of artists along the way. Each task build on the previous one and culminates in the student devising a final outcome (a final piece of artwork).
Also included is an extensive photographic library of natural images to provide inspiration to students. Photographic files included are:
Plants
Insects
Fungi
Birds
Natural textures
