Drawing houses with accuracy and detail
This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners to develop observational drawing skills through the study of houses. The lesson emphasises composition, proportion and attention to detail, encouraging children to draw what they see rather than what they think is there. Techniques for measuring features and adding architectural detail are modelled to build learners’ confidence and accuracy.
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 Craft and design: Architecture unit, this lesson introduces learners to drawing from observation as a key design skill, laying the foundation for later architectural exploration.
