Teacher video: Designing a tile

This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners through the design process for a clay house tile. Inspired by the work of sculptor Rachel Whiteread, learners create detailed drawings of houses, planning which features will be joined in relief and which will be impressed into the clay. The video encourages discussion about architectural features and how different tools and techniques might be used in the next clay session.

Learner video: Applying skills in clay

This Art and design video teaches learners how to create a clay tile using both relief and impressed techniques. The video encourages creative exploration while practising key clay skills.

Teacher video: Applying skills in clay

This Art and design video supports teachers in delivering a practical lesson where children apply previously learned clay skills to create a textured tile inspired by the work of sculptor Rachel Whiteread. Children explore both relief, adding clay shapes using the score and slip method and impressing, pressing tools or objects into the surface to create marks. The lesson emphasises experimentation with shape, texture and form.
