YEAR 10 THEME NATURAL FORMS INFLUENCES/SOURCES Pupils will develop ideas using primary and secondary images inspired by natural forms: Natural objects and forms Artists: Paul Cezanne, Janet Fish Ferndinad Ledger Henri Matisse, Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Roy Lichenstien ASSESSMENT CRITERIA Pupils will be assessed on a termly basis. Pupils will be given targets regularly with marking of coursework. As part of the assessment criteria pupils are expected to incorporate the 4 key skills set out by the exam board. At the end of the project pupils will mark and evaluate their own work using the Edexcel assessment matrix, followed by the teachers assessment. EDEXCEL MARKING MATRIX KEY SKILLS DESCRIPTION MARKS AO1: DEVELOP IDEAS AO2: REFINE IDEAS AO3 RECORD IDEAS AO4 PRESENT IDEAS Develop their ideas through investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and cultural understanding Refine their ideas through experimenting and selecting appropriate resources, media, materials, techniques and processes Record ideas, observations and insights relevant to their intentions in visual and/or other forms Present a personal, informed and meaningful response demonstrating analytical and critical understanding, realising intentions and, where appropriate, making connections between visual, written, oral or other elements.
AIMS/OBJECTIVES To explore the main themes of the work to gain an over view of the project To gain an understanding of GCSE, the outline of the course and the marking criteria set by the exam board To gain an understanding of developing different ideas through a diversity of processes from different starting points Natural Forms To encourage pupils To develop ideas informed by contextual and other sources for the project Natural Forms Pupils will further develop observational drawing skills, review skills Pupils will be aware of the Formal Elements and how to use them effectively Pupils will experiment different mark making techniques Pupil s gain an understanding of how previous artists have explored used line, form and tone in their work To research and analysis artists work has a to stimulate their own creative ideas To further gain an understanding of how to analysis and research artists work using content, form, process, and mood to structure analysis and further developing art specific vocabulary To gain an understanding of mono printing and mark making and to experiment with mixed media, mark making techniques To further gain an understanding, visually exploring ideas through composition To develop explore and refine ideas through the creative process and the use of media To develop ideas through the creative process evaluating work and to present a final piece To enable pupils to evaluate their own work and the work of others within the GCSE marking criteria OUTCOME By the end of the project all pupils will have incorporated the assessment criteria in their work. They will have produced a body of work that shows the use of different media and techniques. They will show development of ideas through visual work and written annotation, making connections between their work and between their own and other artists and designers work. They will all have produced a final outcome which relates to the theme Natural Forms and has good connections to the research work. Pupils will be introduced to the out line of GCSE course they will be shown examples of art work so they can visually gain an understanding of the course Pupils will be introduced to the theme of the project Natural Forms Pupils will mind map the topic, spider diagram, research on the internet and create visual mind maps. Pupil s will continue to refine observational drawings skills Pupils will further develop their sketchbooks creatively Pupils will gain an understanding of the formal elements Pupil s will explore the work of various artists to gain an understanding of how previous artists have explored the theme and used media Pupils will research artist s work including written analysis (form, content, process, mood) using a developed artistic vocabulary Pupils will make contextual links with their work and other Pupils will explore a variety of media and 2D and 3D techniques Pupils will explore composition developing pieces of work inspired by the artists researched Pupils will have explored and refined ideas through the experimentation of media Pupils will produce a final piece based on Natural Forms Pupils will refine final piece to create a final art work or a series of final outcomes LITERACY Pupils will Develop their ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding Research the work of others artists, cultures and art movements using the Rod Taylor formula. Pupils will explore relevant intentions and ideas, demonstrating an ability to reflect, review and analyse work and progress. Pupils will annotate their work including their plan sheets writing about how the work is linked to the theme,
as well as include the media to be used and the reason for its use. CURRIUCLUM AND OTHER LINKS Other subject areas- English- Contextual links - analysis of text and work. Comparing and contrasting skills. History links to Culture RS Religious identity WRL working to a brief as designers would and looking at the work of professional artists and making links to their own work. DT working resistant and textiles materials. Planning the final out come. ICT use of It to research the work of artists using the internet. Adobe Photoshop manipulating images SMSC reflecting on own work and that of others. Celebrating the diverse work produced by both Western and Non Western cultures. Ever child matters. PLTS using a variety of methods of working within and out of class, with continual reflection and review of work and ideas embedded in the course.
ACTION PLAN Each stage represents a weeks work, stages can be extended or shorten depending on differentiation of pupils and teacher preference STAGE 1 Pupils will analysis the GCSE marking criteria to gain an understanding of the requirements of the syllabus A01 A02 A03 A04 Pupils will produce spider diagrams to access different ideas and approaches to the brief Pupils will be introduced to artists work who have explored this theme Pupils will design the front page of their sketchbooks Stage 2 Pupils will produce observational drawings of fruit and vegetables, exploring the use of line Pupils will experiment with different lines and mark making techniques to gain further an understanding of how to realise form on paper using line Pupils will experiment with mono prints to further understand different mark making techniques and to produce images Pupils will be introduced to the artist Van Gogh to demonstrate the power of mark making to the mood of work Produce line drawings of food and drink Research an artist who has used line and not shading to produce form Research the artist Van Gogh Stage 3: Pupils will produce observational drawing of still life using oil pastels and white spirit Pupils will further understanding of how to create form by tone mark making and colour Pupils will start to paint using acrylic paints Pupils will be introduced to the work of Paul Cezanne Pupils will develop small compositions of 2/3 objects arranging the object to choose the still life they are drawing Pupils will produce tonal drawings of food and drink only using shading Pupils will produce a collage of tone of different fruit and vegetables Pupils will produce small compositions of different foods ACTION PLAN Stage 4 PLTS: CT, IE, EP, RL Pupils will produce critical studies of these artists work in terms of content, mood, form and process Pupils will employ techniques, which they have seen used by different artists Pupils will watch a short video to gain a full understanding of his work Pupils will select an image of his work and copy it Pupils will research artist work Cezanne
Stage 5 Pupils will be introduced to mud rock and working in light relief Pupils will build up various images of food and drink in light relief Pupils will then experiment with the texture of these images Annotate and explain using drawing how to work in mud rock and card board relief Produce a cardboard relief image in sketch book Stage 6 Pupils will research the artist Paul Cezanne Pupils will complete studies of his work Pupils using the Rod Taylor format will anaylisis the art work Paul Cezanne Pupils will watch a documentary on Paul Cezanne To write a critical analysis of the work of one or more of the artists using the Rod Taylor format, and linking the work to their own classwork. Stage 7 Pupils will be introduced to printing techniques Mono Poly block Lino print reduction prints Pupils will explore colour - printing on different colour paper/ tissue paper Colour of the printing ink, two tone prints Design a page in your sketchbook of prints Stage 8 Pupil s will be introduced to Cubist artists Pupils will research the work and draw a section of the work Pupils will look at the work of Roy Lichenstien and compare and contrast his work with the Cubist artists to again an understanding of development in art Pupils will research the work of the cubist artists in their sketchbooks and do small studies Pupils will research the works of Roy Lichenstien Stage 9 Pupils will explore composition Pupils will discuss different styles Cubist, still life, Pop art it terms of compositions Pupils will be introduced to design sheets Pupils will design their own composition making sure that their work includes A01, A02,A03 A04 Annotate and refine composition Targets re evaluated and estimated grades given for body work
Stage 10 Pupils will work on their final mixed media compositions ACTION PLAN DIFFERENTIATED AND EXTENTION WORK All pupils will follow the same schemes of work, the work will be differentiated as follows:- Pupils with poor drawing skills All pupils will produce observational drawings those struggling with drawing will concentrate on drawing parts or selected areas and will focus on presenting moods and working with photographs to manipulate ideas from their identity boxes Pupils will be encouraged to use more secondary sources to help them with tones and shades. Those pupils who find it difficult to control colour and working with wet media, will only use dry media such as pastels, colour pencils etc, or use water colour and use colour pencils on top to add detail, tone and clean up fuzzy lines. Pupils who find it difficult to produce accurate detailed drawings will produce more preparatory work using craft based media and techniques. When pupils are developing plans for the final piece they will abstract their final out come, therefore their weak drawing skills (tone and fine detail) will not be so obvious. Evaluate work through annotations, and a basic evaluation which will be more descriptive. GTS Pupils GTS pupils will be expected to produce fluent detailed observational drawings from both primary and secondary sources. Pupils will be expected to consistently annotate and evaluate their work in progress, and show clear evidence of the reflection through producing good quality work. Pupils will be expected to use a wider range of media fluently to produce their work. Pupils will be expected to produce more detailed plans with the incorporation of the media to be used (Actual), not just through annotated notes. Pupils will use mixed media in their final outcome with fluency. Pupils will be expected to develop work completed in class through imaginative and original additional outcomes produced at home. To produce a detail fluent account of their work through an evaluation commenting on what went well, what went badly and how the work can be improved if the project was carried out again.
