In Autumn 1 year 5 study drawing. For examples of the expected standard please see below.

Retrieval page

Recap of the different marks made by using a variety of media. (pencils, charcoal, coloured pencils)

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

Can draw simple lines with some accuracy using reference lines as a guide.

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.

Constructing with Cubes

Can draw simple lines with accuracy using reference lines as a guide.

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

Can add detail using texture, shading, light and the shadows it creates to make the 2D shapes appear 3D.

City in One-Point Perspective

Can draw vertical, horizontal and horizon (where the sea and land meet) lines with accuracy using guide dots to create perspective.

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

Field sketching

Can draw lines and shapes from observation with accuracy.

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

Can create perspective drawing using the skills learnt in previous lessons.

Final Piece

Can draw a perspective drawing of a street applying the skills learnt from this topic: accurately drawn lines and shapes, showing an awareness of vanishing points, foreshortening using texture and tone to add detail.
