Year 7 Unit 1 Fine Art

About this unitIn this unit, students will be introduced to the formal elements and will investigate the term ‘drawing’ and the many forms it takes. Students will develop their observational drawing skills using primary sources as their inspiration, e.g. fruit and vegetables. They will explore through various drawing activities interesting shapes and textures found in nature and develop these skills further by experimenting with a variety of 2D materials.Students will research relevant artists to further deepen their understanding of natural forms as source of inspiration. From this unit students should have a variety of studies in their books, which will then act as stimulus for their next art projects where they will explore typography and form through sculpture.

What the unit covers

NOTES/CHANGES/SUGGESTIONSList any notes, suggestions, or considerations for future teaching of this unit.

2015/16- Observational Studies were a great starting point to quickly baseline students’ levels. Also useful to show

quick progress made for Parents Evening.

Good to have different skills each lesson. Students learnt a lot of basic art techniques, knowledge and vocabulary.

2016/17- The homework booklet we introduced this year worked much

better.

Better emphasis on drawing skills, as well as knowledge of the

elements.

2015/16- Group work is a challenge in the small rooms. Attempted larger scale work but the logistics and lack of space became frustrating. This will definitely

limit the scale etc next time.

The drawing homework was too open too soon. They need more structure and

boundaries so…

Because there was changes to the PPT, resources etc as we went

along, the SOW didn’t quite follow the same timeframe / details, so...

…we’ll produce a booklet (like the Year 9 one)- this should improve the

quality of the homework.

...we have updated the SOW in Spring 2017, so that the MTP, the

PPT (which act as our STP) and the SOW all correlate.

2015/16- Excellent SOW! Our favourite of the year. Fantastic for classroom management as it is a very clean

outcome that encourages a very quiet and calm working atmosphere.

Excellent skills developed.

Students enjoy it as it produces very effective outcomes through patience

and perseverance rather than a demand for talent.

Homework produced excellent results too.

2016/17- Adapting the task to work with the negative space not only

provided a further refinement to the outcome but also sped up the process as

there was less space to fill with dots.

2015/16- As digital work is now limited (only one suite of Macs and many student laptops don’t have Adobe

Creative Suite) most students didn’t manage to refine digitally…

We still didn’t manage to get to a digital outcome. However, we have since

discovered Pixlr- a digital version of photoshop. Although we wouldn’t be

able to create refined digital images as easily as we would with Illustrator, we

would at least be able to scan the letters in and have students agjust the contrast etc and reposition them to create words

and phrases...

…SOWs will now focus on handmade graphic design as the primary

outcome and digital work will be planned according to timetables-

poss. alongside handmade work to alleviate the conjestion on the Macs.

...experiment with Pixlr- see what can be achieved and create a tutorial.

Differentiated teacher example showed how the technique could be used at 3

different levels- simple tones, gradients and complex tones to show form.

Year 7 Unit 3 Fine Art

About this unitIn this unit, students will build on their understanding of the formal elements and 3D making skills. They will investigate what is meant by an organic form to create their own abstracted sculpture in clay. They will explore through drawing activities interesting shapes and textures found in nature and develop these skills further by building maquettes; learning how to transform a drawing from a 2d to a 3d form. Students will research relevant artists to further deepen their understanding of natural forms as source of inspiration, as well as learning ‘what makes an effective sculpture?’ Students will be exposed to a wide variety of media and learn various clay building techniques as well as glazing to enhance the aesthetic quality of their final sculpture.

What the unit covers

Art Craft Design 2-D 3-D Individual work Collaborative work

Line Tone Colour Pattern Texture Shape Form Space

Homework Project You are to create a collage depicting a sea creature. Look at examples of collages and study how tone and texture is created. Consider gradients of colour and whether it would be more appropriate to tear or cut the coloured paper.

2 Develop experimentation skills.

Develop 3D making and ceramic skills.

Develop mark-making skills.

Understand the properties of clay.

Teacher demo- how to create texture, relief (negative and positive), how to build, how to use score and slip.

Students will be encourages to experiment without realization, i.e. to remove the pressure or fear of failure, the work produced will be recycled- not fired.

Inquiry based conversations about the properties of clay should be encouraged.

Science- properties of clay- natural material, what is it? Where does it come from? Etc.

3 Develop 3D design skills. Develop recording skills. Understand the purpose

of a maquette and the process of producing one.

Teacher / student example of design- outcome could be tile, sculpture, vessel, plate etc.

Introduce the term ‘maquette’, discuss the different materials that can be used and what is the purpose of a maquette.

Students to make a maquette of their final piece, either working individually or in groups and each group could be given a different material to make their maquette with e.g. soap, cardboard, paper, wire and tissue paper etc.

Document the maquette process creatively in their book, either they take photos of the process to illustrate their notes or thumbnail sketches etc.

Take a photo of their maquette and present in sketch book with annotations labeling and explaining how they could achieve it using clay, also they should analyse which techniques will be most useful for their design and why.

2015/16- Great intro into ceramics- good use of basic skills.

The outcomes produced worked well for the large year 7 classes- especially the

plates which were easy to store.

Great outcomes- great for esteem, enthusiasm etc. Work was used for FOD

2015/16- Timing- Project was delivered during the second half of term 2, which

is our busiest time (exams, uploads, events) and whilst the teaching of it was

very calm, we realized it put an enormous strain on the use of the kiln as

the Year 11 and 13 classes were of course prioritized…

...we’ll shift the project to earlier in the year. Poss. Just after Christmas.

Then the firing etc will be done before the exam work needs to be done.

auction too.

2016/17-A range of outcomes were created- some classes created tile reliefs

other classes created coil pots. The flexibility to change the outcome works

well to keep it interesting for the teacher!

The homework was better since using more clear examples and specific

instructions.

Some of the homework was questionable (maybe not delivered

appropriately?)…

2016/17- Some of the glazes were a bit “icky”- mainly due to the better colours not being replenished and some poor

combinations...

… use the design board template- very straight forward and easy to follow.

...take note for next year- keep it simple!

2015/16- Second time through this project. Still works well. Produces great outcomes. Students learn fundamentals

of printmaking.

2016/17- This time we didn’t use Gyotaku (no real fish) and it still

provided excellent outcomes, although maybel the excitement of Gyotaku was

missing?

The layered work of April Wilson worked well as the task is automatically

“chunked” making it ideal for Year 7, especially the boys.

2015/16- It might be time to call it a day on the use of actual fish. It seems

wasteful? …

Some of the homework handed in weren’t to the standard that we would

have expected…

2016/17- Undecided about the use of real fish? Works well without as a SOW

but Gyotaku is such a unique experience (especially living in Asia) that maybe it

should come back?

...maybe just use monoprinting techniques and wax resist?

… ensure homework is delivered and explained thoroughly with clear

examples.

Add design element- use prints to repeat and create patterns. Use to cover front cover of sketchbooks.

1 Develop analysis skills. Understand growth,

nature and its representation in design.

Introduction to Growing Garments Group investigation/ research task- Katsuya

Kamo Suggestion - In groups of 5, give each group

a different headpiece created by Katsuya Kamo. Each group must research the piece and the designer, finding examples of how their work links to natural forms. Create large scale group mindmaps with thumbnail sketches to document their research.

Group presentations and discussion on their findings.

Differentiation- all students will comment on the work of Kamo, most will be able to analyse the work using the framework as guidance and some will be able to hypothesize ideas and questions regarding the work.

About this unitIn this unit, students will extend their skills into 3D making and design. They will investigate garment design and mood-boarding as an independent homework project during the previous unit. During that task students will create a creative design board that will inform the hat / shoe that they will create. Students will continue to explore the theme of organic forms and take inspiration from their previous projects, as well as from other craftspeople and designers. It may be appropriate for students to work collaboratively on this project, either on the same outcome or on a collection of

WHAT WORKED WELLList the portions of the unit (content, assessment, planning, connections) that were successful.

WHAT DID NOT WORK WELLList the portions of the unit (content, assessment, planning, connections) that were not as successful as hoped.

NOTES/CHANGES/SUGGESTIONSList any notes, suggestions, or considerations for future teaching of this unit.

2016- Design element is great. Good to have a design based project.

Better outcomes than expected… … The SOW is open ended in terms of materials and we considered a few

different direction. However, all groups used white paper and double sided tape. Using paper manipulations meant that

the task was clean and strong aesthetics were quite easy to achieve…

2016/17- Because this was the last project this year and due to the

impacted teaching time of Term 3- exam weeks, house events, sports day,

challenge week and building work- the project was rushed. The outcomes were still successful but not as refined as last

year...

…keep SOW open, but note, paper manipulations are a good choice!

...beware of the the last project!!! Time moves quicker than any other

time of the year! :-/
