Learning objective
- To know how to create different types of lines.
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 learn about the work of a range of artists, craft makers and designers, describing the differences and similarities between different practices and disciplines, and making links to their own work
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support:The lesson presentation can be displayed to support children with the names of the different types of lines as well as what they look like.
Give children only a few lengths of string and encourage them to stand up as they are working as they will it easier.
Pupils working at greater depth:
Can use more lengths of string and coloured pencils to work colour into their small square drawings on white paper. Remind them that they are using lines only and not ‘colouring in’.
They may also be encouraged to experiment with how they hold the pencil/chalk and try creating lines using the side as well as the tip, or switching between the two as they draw.
