A Knowledge organiser that captures the essential knowledge and skills learnt throughout the unit Archived - Art and design, Year 3, Prehistoric art.
This resource introduces pupils to the world of prehistoric art, focusing on how early humans used visual expression to tell stories, record history, and communicate. It highlights key vocabulary such as "charcoal", "tone", and "texture", while exploring the significance of cave art created 10,000 to 20,000 years ago. Pupils learn about drawing materials like charcoal made from willow twigs, techniques for smudging and fixing, and the natural pigments used by early artists. The organiser also supports understanding of key artistic elements including geometric shapes, line drawings, and proportions, giving pupils a strong foundation in both art history and technique.
