This Art and design video explains how to help children develop their understanding of tone, one of the six formal elements of art, by creating realistic 3D planet drawings. Using chalk and soft pastels, learners experiment with blending techniques to create light and dark areas, giving their planets a spherical appearance. They’re encouraged to explore colour mixing and tonal contrast to replicate the look of planets like Jupiter.

This Art and design video explains how to guide learners as they invent and build their own 3D animal models using recycled materials. Learners are supported to explore how animals survive by considering habitat, movement and feeding, and to reflect these features in their junk model designs.

This Art and design video guides learners as they explore creative ways to transform their printed map designs into finished artworks. Learners are encouraged to experiment with composition and construction by turning their prints into mobiles, collages or sculptural forms.

This Art and design video supports learners as they turn a section of their map drawing into a simple print using polystyrene tiles. They explore the basics of relief printing, learning how to draw into a printing block, apply ink using rollers and create bold prints on paper.

This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners through the process of transforming their map drawings into printed artworks. Using polystyrene tiles, children create simple printing blocks and explore printmaking techniques to produce their own maps in relief.

This Art and design video supports learners as they transform part of their map drawing into a colourful abstract artwork inspired by stained glass. Using a viewfinder to select an interesting section of their map, learners simplify shapes, explore layering with tissue or cellophane and experiment with colour and composition.

This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners through a creative process that transforms a section of their map drawing into an abstract stained glass-style artwork. Inspired by artists who use maps in imaginative ways, learners explore colour, shape and composition as they layer tissue or cellophane on transparent material.

This Art and design video demonstrates how to transform 2D map drawings into imaginative 3D relief maps. The activity encourages learners to build layers with mixed media to represent features like roads rivers and buildings while exploring colour composition and spatial awareness.

This Art and design video helps learners explore how artists can use maps as creative inspiration. Learners are guided to draw their own artist’s map based on a personal journey, real or imagined, focusing on key landmarks, colours and details that are meaningful to them.
