Learner video: Gestural mark marking

This Art and design video introduces gestural mark making to capture speed energy and direction. The activity encourages learners to respond physically and emotionally to movement using expressive lines and marks.

Learner video: Movement

This Art and design video demonstrates expressive drawing techniques to capture movement inspired by ballet or football. The activity encourages using bold materials and gestural marks to respond to dynamic filmed movement.

Teacher video: Addressing perfection

This Art and design video helps teachers support learners in developing expressive mark making skills through large-scale drawing. The lesson focuses on movement, encouraging children to move away from perfectionism and embrace creativity, expression and experimentation.

Teacher video: Drawing materials

This Art and design video introduces teachers to a range of drawing materials and their expressive qualities, helping them feel confident in modelling techniques and offering learners broader artistic experiences. It explores the use and characteristics of materials such as graphite sticks, charcoal, oil and soft pastels and crayons, alongside techniques like sgraffito and blending.

Teacher video: Reflection and symmetry

This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners through the process of creating symmetrical flip patterns from their own geometric drawings. The activity builds on children’s understanding of symmetry and reflection, introducing a new way to transfer and repeat designs using tracing paper.

Learner video: Print power!

This Art and design video demonstrates how to create large-scale collaborative prints inspired by previous collage and wax resist work. The activity encourages experimentation with printing methods materials and tools and group decision-making about composition and colour.

Teacher video: Print power!

This Art and design video supports teachers in facilitating a collaborative printmaking activity inspired by learners’ previous collage and wax resist work. Learners work in groups to create large-scale prints using a range of experimental techniques, such as block printing, monoprinting and textured stamping.

Learner video: Wax resist drawings

This Art and design video demonstrates how to create expressive wax resist drawings inspired by collage compositions. The activity encourages exploration of mark making, texture and contrast through scratching techniques to reveal vibrant colours beneath the paint.

Teacher video: Wax resist drawings

This Art and design video supports learners as they explore wax resist drawing techniques to create expressive and abstract compositions. Using their collage from the previous lesson as inspiration, learners use viewfinders to select sections and scratch into painted wax surfaces.
