Retrieval page

Recap of the different marks made by using a variety of media. (HB, 2B, 4B, Charcoal)

Effective recall of use of pencils in a variety of ways showing control, tone, line, pattern and texture.

Can draw simple circular shapes with some accuracy.

Can show an awareness of light and the shadows it creates to make the 2D shapes appear 3D.

Research and appreciation page

Collect and record information about famous artists, designers and architects.

Discuss and evaluate an artist’s work including commentary on the formal elements.

Rippling Flags & The Scroll

Can draw curved lines with some accuracy.

Can show an awareness of foreshortening (distorting of objects) to create perspective.

Can begin to draw curved lines in the correct placement (lower closer/higher farther away) and size (larger closer/ smaller farther away) to appear farther away or closer.

Can show an awareness of light and the shadows it creates to make the 2D shapes appear 3D

Contour Tubes

Can draw contour lines (curved lines that wrap around an object) with some accuracy using reference lines as a guide.

Can show an awareness of foreshortening (distorting of objects) to create perspective.

Can begin to draw lines in the correct placement (lower closer/higher farther away) and size (larger closer/ smaller farther away) to appear farther away or closer.

Can show an awareness of light and the shadows it creates to make the 2D shapes appear 3D.

The Wave

Can draw contour lines with some accuracy.

Can add texture to an object through the use of different pencils and mark making.

Can apply the skills from previous lessons.

Final Piece

Can draw a wave drawing applying the skills learnt from this topic: accurately drawn curved and contoured lines, using texture and tone to add detail.
