Developing confidence with drawing materials
This Art and design video supports teachers in delivering a comprehensive introduction to a range of drawing materials, focusing on their properties, uses and classroom suitability. From pencils and graphite sticks to charcoal, wax crayons, oil pastels and soft pastels, the video explores how each medium can support learners’ growing understanding of tone, texture and mark making.
This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, which support the Cambridge Primary Art & Design Curriculum Framework (0067). As part of the Drawing: Developing drawing skills unit, this lesson helps teachers feel prepared to lead engaging, hands-on lessons that develop learners’ skills in expressing themselves through drawing.
