Adaptive teaching

Pupils needing extra support:

  • Could focus on one or two clear areas of detail to develop their collage by responding to targeted questions or prompts.
  • Could adapt a modelled example to add simple detail by copying a demonstrated technique before making their own choices.
  • Could use sticky notes to mark areas they feel successful in or wish to improve to support reflection by identifying specific parts of their artwork.

Pupils working at greater depth:

  • Should identify specific details in Bearden’s artwork and explain their purpose or effect.
  • Should make thoughtful choices of materials and tools to enhance detail in their own collage.
  • Should reflect on improvements made to their artwork and explain why these changes strengthened the final piece.
  • Could experiment with combining techniques, such as paint and outline, to create contrast or emphasis.
