This Art and Design scheme of work video is part of the lesson where pupils create monoprints based on their Christmas tree drawings.

The video guides children through each step of the monoprinting process, from preparing their background and rolling out ink or paint, to using tracing techniques to transfer their image. Pupils learn how different pressures and tools affect the outcome, helping them make decisions about the style and clarity of their print.

They are encouraged to experiment, choosing whether to add extra colour by rolling over the print or leave it more defined for a sharper look. The video also models how pupils could decorate their prints in a festive way once dry.

Pupils can gain hands-on experience with printmaking techniques while creating unique artwork.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Upper key stage 2 Formal elements: Architecture unit.
