Lesson 3: Line 2: Exploring line (Original scheme)

Inspired by water and the artwork of Zaria Forman, children continue to explore lines but in a more expressive way. They will be using music to draw lines and marks that reflect their response to what they hear, creating a large collaborative piece.

Learning objective

  • To explore line and mark-making to draw water

National curriculum

Pupils should be taught:

  • To develop a wide range of art and design techniques in using colour, pattern, texture, line, shape, form and space, to use drawing to develop and share their ideas, experiences and imagination
  • Evaluate and analyse creative works using the language of art, craft and design

Pupils needing extra support: may need to be encouraged to use a range of materials and draw using big, wider arm movements.

Pupils working at greater depth: will control the materials more effectively and create more accurate work. Encourage them to develop greater detail in their drawing.
