Description

This guide to planning and teaching outstanding art lessons features practical ideas that link creative outcomes to contextual understanding, using famous artworks. It extends the National Curriculum requirements for art and design to ensure learning is developed across five main skills for making art: drawing, painting, collage, printing and sculpture. Through carefully planned lesson frameworks, pupils are given opportunities to explore ideas and express them visually, vocally and through written work using subject-specific vocabulary.

Reviews

I'm very pleased with the Bloomsbury Curriculum Basics range and would highly recommend them to home school parents and new teachers too. There's a wealth of knowledge to be gained from them as well as lesson plans to guide you through each lesson ensuring you meet the criteria. In my mind, they are a great investment as they'll see you through all 6 years of Primary education. * Nazira, lovehijabgirl.blogspot.co.uk *
