A reference document providing a clear progression of key vocabulary across the original Kapow Primary Art and Design scheme (now archived).

This resource outlines the essential subject-specific terms introduced from Year 1 to Year 6, helping teachers build learners’ art literacy over time. It supports vocabulary-rich teaching by offering age-appropriate terms aligned with each unit, from simple descriptive language in lower years to more technical and conceptual terms in KS2. This progression encourages consistent use of artistic language and supports pupils’ ability to talk about their work confidently and accurately.
