Year 5 Art and Design

I need space- Drawing 

This unit focuses on understanding retrofuturism, developing skills in evaluating images and creating art through various drawing processes, including collagraph printmaking. It emphasises the development of pupils' independent artistic skills and their ability to generate, test, and refine ideas in their sketchbooks, leading to a final piece of artwork. 

1.  What is the purpose of space imagery?  To  explore the purpose and effect of imagery.

2. What materials will you choose? To understand and explore decision making in creative processes.

3. How can we create a collagraph print? -Teis Albers. To develop drawn ideas through printmaking.

4. How will I create a vision of the future? To test and develop ideas using sketchbooks.

5. How can we improve our work? To  apply an understanding of drawing processes to revisit and improve ideas.

I need space- Drawing

National Curriculum Objectives

• • To create sketch books to record their observations and use them to review and revisit ideas.

  • To learn about great artists, architects and designers in history.

  • To develop their techniques, including their control and their use of materials, with creativity, experimentation and an increasing awareness of different kinds of art, craft and design.

  • To improve their mastery of art and design techniques, including drawing, painting and sculpture with a range of materials [for example, pencil, charcoal, paint, clay] 

Portraits- Painting & mixed media

This unit offers pupils opportunities to develop skills in creating interesting portrait drawings using words, experimenting with materials and techniques, and constructing self-portraits that represent aspects of themselves. This comprehensive unit enhances their understanding and application of art vocabulary and encourages thoughtful decisions in their artwork composition. 

1. How can we develop our portrait using a poem? To explore how a drawing can be developed. 

2. How can we develop our self portraits? To combine materials for effect.

3. What fetures of a self portrait have artists used? To identify the features of self-portraits.

4. How can we change our faces? To develop ideas towards an outcome by experimenting with materials and techniques.

5. How will you create a mixed-media portrait? To apply knowledge and skills to create a mixed-media self-portrait.

Architecture- Craft & Design

This unit focuses on architecture, guiding pupils through observational drawing, printmaking, and building design. It encourages children to explore architectural elements, analyse Hundertwasser's work, and create meaningful monuments, enhancing their understanding of composition, design, and art appreciation.

1. What skills can we use to draw a house from observation? To apply observational drawing skills to interpret forms accurately. *

2. How can we create a  monoprint? To apply composition skills to develop a drawing into print.

3. What will your new building look like?  To apply an understanding of architecture to design a building.

4. How can we use the style of Friedensreich Hundertwasser in our work? To extend design ideas through research and sketchbook use.

5. How will you design your monument? To explore and evaluate the intention of a design.
