Pillar 3 – Inclusive (Mastery):
The EYFS curriculum supports the foundation of art through exploring and creating using different art mediums and materials both independently and with a beginning to set a more purposeful structure to the pupils’ art project; with an expected outcome We will develop their individual knowledge by setting out resources that will enhance their artistic curiosity and exploration skills to create inspirational pieces inspired by artists, experiences and living memory Each composite will be planned
to ensure all children are able to understand, implement and evaluate their own art projects effectively We will challenge the teaching and learning of art knowledge and theory through planning and implementing effective continuous provision across EYFS, that enables the pupils to explore art through using their senses and critical thinking skills
Pillar 4 – Building long term memory:
The composites of art will be covered through our learning themes in order for the pupils to build long memory with their art skills and knowledge
Drawing and Painting will be developed through our focus on ‘me, myself and I’ as the pupils will be able to draw upon personal experiences and memories that will enable them to link and develop personal drawing and painting skills Then, using Arcimboldi fruit and vegetable portraits, the pupils can begin to develop their critical thinking skills, and explore other ways to create portraits of themselves and their families through drawing and painting
Collage and Printing will be taught throughout our ‘Living things and Mini-beasts’ theme These art composites will be explored and developed through real, natural, first-hand experiences that will enable the pupils to talk about their discoveries, for example; the pattern on a snail’s shell, and how the links can be made to Matisse’s collage piece ‘The Snail’, to the pupils exploring and creating their own inspired ‘Snail’ artwork
Finally, Sculpture and Textiles will be taught through our theme ‘Let’s celebrate’, as many living celebration experiences are linked to dancing, singing and costume-making that involves textiles Teaching and learning using our own experience of making a Chinese dragon dance costume will build upon purposeful skills and embed the artistic knowledge
Building Reception’s long-term memory this way enables the pupils to make the links with their art work, and feel inspired when creating together and independently Offering real experiences and learning themes enables the pupils to embed the artisticknowledge, language and skills long term and puts them in a good place for KS1 curriculum where their foundation of art is ready to build upon

of lines used in drawings
• Lines help to create
movement, energy and
direction in art
• Straight lines can be vertical,
horizontal or diagonal.
• Expressive lines are curved
lines, wavy lines, they can
increase the energy and add
movement to a piece of art

create texture using lines by
drawing short lines in a single
direction – this is called
hatching

different lines
• When drawing a portrait, we
focus on each part of the face.
Knowledge: Art Theory
• Lines can suggest something
more than just what can be
seen: movement, mood and
atmosphere, the subject's
emotions, the artist's
emotions and ideas

designers to describe objects,
add detail or create
expression Lines define an
artwork and reveal the artist’s
techniques
• In The Rhinoceros (c.1515),
Albrecht Durer uses lines to
describe how he imagines the
animal would look and feel
• More detailed lines that are
close together, combine to
show hard ridges, spikey hair
and areas of smooth and
rough texture The overall
effect is that the shell looks
heavy, hard and bulky even

techniques with our paint brush, including a sweep or dab
• Flat or rectangular brushes
have square, flexible ends and can hold a lot of paint
When used flat, they can make long strokes and are well suited to blending and
painting in large areas The
tip and sides can also be
used for more delicate lines
and small touches
• Round and pointy brushes
have a large belly that tapers
to a fine point They're capable of bold strokes that
can cover large areas, they
can also be used for fine
lines and details.
• Small-size brushes are used for detail work, and large-size
brushes for painting large areas and washes
• Lots of different tools can be
used to apply paint not just
paint brushes – sponge, wooden sticks, forks, natural materials.
• Blending/smudging is used to
create a soft background
colour, then adding details on
top with finer and more defined lines in different colours

• Materials can be changed by shaping and/or cutting and joined using glue, tape and other materials to make a sculpture.
• Some materials can by pinched, bent, waved or rolled to change their shape.
• Sculptures can be made out of paper and card- bending it and cutting it
• Sculptures can be made from recycled materials, boxes,
cardboard tubes etc
• Craft sticks, pipe cleaners, tooth picks, wood pieces can all be used to make
sculptures
• Glue, tape, string, hot glue
can all be used to hold simple objects together to make a
structure
• A line can enclose a space to make a basic shape – square,
triangle, rectangle, circle
-these can form our paper sculpture.
Knowledge: Art Theory
• Paper sculpture is artwork
created by shaping different
types of paper
• Most sculptors use paper as one of the materials in their sculpture.
• Chris Gilmour is a sculptor
who specializes in making
life-size objects made solely from cardboard and glue.
• The British artist recycles packaging material into detailed sculptures without
the use of any supporting frames, wood or metal
• Each represents an object
from everyday life,
but rendered in cardboard it
takes on a whole new presence
• He has held numerous solo
and group exhibitions in
museums and galleries all overthe World
• Calvin Nicholls is a paper artist today.
• He uses paper to create
surface to make a work of art
• Collage is a popular technique
in modern art
• When actual painting is included,
or any other medium, the
technique is classified as 'mixed media'.
• Cut, glue, trim material to create images from a variety of media –
crepe paper, fabric,magazines
• Create a variety of images (representation of an object, thing
or person in art) on different backgrounds
• Use a combination of materials
that have been cut, torn, glued
• Gathering and sorting materials
they will need
• Collages can be made using a range of materials Materials can
be cut and assembled (brought together) onto paper to make a
larger picture
• You can use: paper, flowers, wood, ribbon, string, buttons, leaves, grass and fabric
• An artistic collage work may
include newspaper clippings, ribbons, bits of coloured
or hand-made papers, portions of
other artwork, photographs, and such, glued to a piece of paper or
canvas and natural materials.
• You can use glue, coloured maskingtape, stickers, or contact paper to stick different materials together
• You can collage on paper,
cardboard, windows, 3-D objects, and even bodies
Knowledge: Art Theory
• Paul Klee was a Swiss-German
artist
• He was one of the most famous painters of the 20th century and animportant figure in the history of
modern art
• He paints colourful abstract pictures; many include geometric
shapes and bold colours
• He painted lots of geometric city
skylines
• Paul Klee’s work, his paintings can
easily be represented in collage
on paper
• The advantage of printmaking
is that lots of the same picture can be printed
• Each print is not an exact copy, but an original, since it came
from the same source (not like painting or drawing)
• You can also use different types
of techniques to start the print.
• Nature prints are direct impressions of life The natural object is printed.
• If natural objects are left on sugar paper in the sun they will have produced a print naturally
to the object and it is printed!
• The greater amount of ink
applied, the stronger the
colour, but you lose detail.
• Paint, ink and felt markers can
be applied to objects to print with
• The object has to be placed down on to paper ink side
down, a cover paper is placed over the top and then rubbed over with your hand to transfer
the print to the paper
• These prints can make a repeating pattern
• A repeating pattern in print is produced when the print is repeated in the same way in
horizontal or vertical lines
Knowledge: Art Theory
• Repeat Patterns in art and design are the repetition of lines, shapes, tones, colours, textures and forms
• Artists and designers explore patterns to discover their
structure and beauty
• A knowledge of how to design
repeat patterns is an essential
skill for any designer
• Today, repeat patterns are
seen almost everywhere but they also reach back through the history of design and across
wool, the woollen fleece is
gathered and spun into
wool – this is then used to knit clothes Cotton is picked from a plant, spun
and then woven to make clothes
• We can cut fabrics to change their shape, cut out patterns and shapes.
• How we cut the materials
depend on the materials weare cutting For instance, wecan use scissors or our hands to rib, tear paper
• We use different types of
scissors to cut different
materials There are paper
scissors and special fabric scissors Scissors with a zig zag edge stop material from
fraying and give material a
patterned edge.
• Drawing out a design on to
the materials first helps to
shape materials correctly
• Scissors need to be held
and controlled safely when cutting materials and transporting
• Some material is cut with a
special knife, craft knife or
a special cutter – these are
used if you have lots of fabric layers
• Fabrics can be joined
together in different ways –
these include gluing, stapling, taping, pinning and sewing
• Gluing is to apply a glue
paste (PVA) to one side of the material and place the other side on top of the
glue -rub together and leave to dry.
• Stapling uses a machine called a stapler Hold the
two materials you are
joining together and staple
through both to join them
• Pinning is using a safety pin
to push through both
materials and fasten to hold
them together
• Taping uses sticky tape

painting to show the woman’s
sadness
• Picasso painted abstract art
• Abstract is a piece of art which
is not realistic It uses shapes
colours and textures
• Abstract art - modern art
which does not represent
images of our everyday world
It has colour, lines and shapes,
but they are not planned to
look like objects or living
things They can either link to
natural or man-made forms or
be based on purely abstract
shapes and forms.

in the painting are red, blue and yellow makes a striking
image that stands out to the viewer
• The colours Van Gogh uses to
depict the beachside scene are
very bright and clear, and these reinforce the calm atmosphere of the painting
The bold colours reveal that it
is a sunny day, and the tone orange for the sand suggests that the waves have washed over, leaving the
one-beach clean and fresh A deep blue is used to convey both
the sky and the sea, creating a virtual reflection on the right side of the painting where the two meet
• Franz Marc uses primary and
secondary colours in The Tiger.
• The tiger is made from bold yellow and black shapes They stand out against the blue leaf

• Sculptures are ways for artists
to share their ideas and experiences
• Andy Goldsworthy is a British nature/environmental
sculptor
• He is an environmentalist
which means he wants to protect the environment
• Andy makes Sculptures out of
natural materials this is also called Land Art
• Andy has used leaves, snow, trees, stone, bricks, clay, cow dung and other natural materials in his sculptures
• Andy’s art work makes us
think that nature is art.
• His work is often temporary.
• His work often crumbles down
or melts away
• In the late 1960’s this form of art became very popular
• Some pieces of land art are
physical surface of an artwork
or design It describes the tactile feeling you would get if
you were able to run your hand over an artwork
• This feeling can vary
depending on the materials the artist used to create the piece of work It could be
smooth, bumpy, coarse, rough or many other textures.
• Actual texture is the result of
the materials used and the
artist or designer's technique.
• Texture can also be added to collage by mixing materials.
• Gluing pieces of paper, fabric, and other objects, such as feathers, beads, wood, corrugated cardboard photographs, yarn, and seeds,
to a background can increase the level of texture in a collage

picture from a distance but the closer you get the more
you can see the dots.
• His paintings work very much
like computer monitors do
today
• George Seurat decided that instead of mixing colours you
could dot different colours
next to each other, the eye mixes the colours – this is optical blending.

Knowledge: Art Practice:
• Form is most closely tied
to sculpture, since it is a
three-dimensional art and has
traditionally consisted almost
primarily of form, with colour
and texture being subordinate
• Form refers to three dimensional objects While shapes have two dimensions (height and width), forms have three dimensions
(height, width and depth)

Knowledge: Art Practice
• Overlapping, layering in collage creates depth, texture and interest
• A collage can be created in different layers.
• The first layer is the background – this can be
created with paint, torn up paper or other materials
• Layers can be added using any
material – cut up pictures from magazines, newspapers

Knowledge: Art Practice
• Recap printing techniques taught so far
• Artists can also carve or impress their design in to wood or other materials using sharp tools to make a printing block or tile
• A printing block is a tool used
for producing a repeat pattern
on textiles, felt, leather, etc.
• Traditional textile printing blocks can vary in size from a

• Recap the basic stiches
practiced in year 2: running stich and over stich
• Recap that stiches can join materials together.
• Stiches can also be used to add detail to a piece of embroidery/textile work
• Tools you will need are: steel needles (not plastic), various cottons, fabrics, binca, embroidery thread, felt and

• There are different shading
techniques that all create a
different shading effect.
• A range of different
techniques can be used to
build up tones.
• When shading it's important
to think about the direction of
the marks you are making as
this can help to emphasise the
form of the object
• Different pencil grades and
charcoal all achieve the effect
of different shades and tones
• Shading techniques include:
cross hatch, hatching,
stripling, scrambling, pattern
• Hatching involves building
tone using lines The thickness
and number of lines and the
distance between them
creates the illusion of form
• There are different types of
hatching:
• A cross hatch is where lines
cross over each other The
density at which the lines
cross over each other
determines the value that is
produced
• Contour hatching uses curved
lines that follow the form of a
subject
• Stippling Dots can be used
instead of lines to build up
tone Stippling is applying
countless small dots to build
up darker values in a drawing
The density of the dots
determines the value
produced The size, number
and distance between the dots
will change the tones created.
• Blending is produced either by
adjusting the amount of
pressure applied to the
medium or by using a
blending tool
• To know that when I draw, I
must begin with a line
drawing, then add tone and
then blend with my pencil
warm or cool are the colours
used?
• Strength of colour – are pure hues, lighter tints, darker shades or less vibrant tones
• The twelve-part colour wheel
can be split in half into a
section of six warm colours and a section of six cool colours.
• Warm colours remind us of
things associated with the
concept of heat such as
summer, beaches, the sun, fireetc
• The warm colours are: purple Red Red-orange Orange Yellow-orange Yellow
Red-• Cool colours remind us of things associated with the absence of heat – such as
winter, ice, water, etc
• The cool colours are: Purple
Blue-purple Blue Blue-green Green Yellow-green
• Using warm and cool colours
in a painting can have
different effects.
• Warm colours are said to advance towards you as if they are jumping out of the
painting
• Cool colours are said to recede into the background,
meaning that they move away
from the viewer Cool colours can be calming and relaxing
but can also be used to signify
sadness.
• Combining warm and cool Warm and cool colours can be
used together to create a
sense of drama, to add interest and contrast, or to balance the temperature of a
composition
• Harmonious colours sit beside
each other on the colour
wheel These colours work well together and create an
• Forms that are 3D can be seen from more than one side
• Forms that are three dimensional, such as sculptures or buildings are called real forms.
• Whether they are real or implied, all forms are either geometric or organic
• Geometric forms are pure, mathematical objects including cubes, pyramids and spheres Geometric forms appear man made and can suggest something solid, balanced and permanent.
• They are often found in
architecture.
• Architecture is the planning,
designing and constructing of
a building
• Organic forms look natural
They are irregular and may seem flowing and
unpredictable, such as in flowers and leaves
• The most obvious example of
organic forms are realistic representations of the natural
world or living things
• Some sculptures are made on
a larger scale
Knowledge: Art Theory
• The Temple of Kukulcan in Chechen Itza, Mexico (constructed 9th – 12th Century) is an example of a
real geometric form.
• Barbara Hepworth was a British sculptor She used wood, stone, bronze and clay
for her work
• Hepworth is known first and foremost as a sculptor, but
she also worked in other mediums – and was very
interested in documenting her
own work through
photography
• She was a leading figure in her art, one of the most famous
or other fabrics
• The top layer can again be
made of any materials or objects
• Some materials will naturally
fade in to the background, some will pop out
• Embellishments are decorative features that can
be added to make things more
attractive – these can be added to the top layer of a collage
• Overlapping - occurs when objects that are closer to the viewer prevent the view of objects that are behind them
• Overlapping is a way of organising space in a piece of art
• It is the placement of objects over one another to create depth in the piece
• Montage art is a type of
college
• A montage is an assembly of images that relate to each
other in some way to create a single work or part of a work
of art
• Montage is the process and
the result of making a
composite photograph by cutting, gluing, rearranging and overlapping two or more
photographs into a new image
Knowledge: Art Theory
• A montage is a piece of work
produced by combining smaller parts, or the process
of making such a work
• Collage was popular
• A design is drawn onto the
block surface It is either
engraved (sunk design) or the
area around the design is
carved away (raised design).
• Ink or paint covers the design it
is pressed down on to ‘paper’
to make a print
• Relief printing is where the
design sticks out from the
surface – this is what makes
the print
• Relief printing is usually a block printing technique where the printing block has raised sections.
• We can make a relief printing block by cutting out a design
from a potato or foam
• Your print will appear the opposite way around from your
drawing – you need to draw
your design backwards.
• Anything you cut away will not print
• You begin by drawing your design on paper and then copying it on to your printing block to cut around
• You can cut out your design using a sharp pencil or small
specific knife
• Print making ink is applied to
the raised design and it is then
printed on to paper
• Impressed prints can be made
by drawing out a design on to a
foam tile Then pressing down
to indent the image into the tile ready to print
Knowledge: Art Theory
• Block Printing is one of the
oldest types of printmaking
Traditionally, block printing was mainly used to create
intricate patterns and made from wooden blocks printed
fabric scissors.
• Cross stich is a common stich used to add detail to a textile
piece
• The stich when completed
forms a cross shape on your
piece of fabric/binca
• There are different types of
cross stich: Half, Continuous and then original Cross Stich
• Half cross stich looks like short, diagonal lines Working
on a set of four holes in a square, come up through bottom left and down throughtop right This is one stitch done You would then repeat
• To complete a full cross stich Work as before on the four binca holes but on moving to the next set of four, do not usethe same holes you’ve been working on Use a fresh set of four instead This provides a gap between the crosses
• Thread your needle just as you
would a needle for hand
sewing Don’t make a knot in
the tail end You will stitch over the tail as you work to secure it without needing a knot As a general rule, you want to avoid using knots when cross stitching because they can leave lumps in the final piece
• Cross stitch is generally worked in rows going from left
to right
• Aim for a nice easy tension on
your stitches Don’t pull them
so tight that they warp the
fabric or leave them so loose that they gap
• The stitches should lie flat
against the fabric without pulling against it
• Textiles can be dyed and printed to add colour and pattern; embroidery and other types of needlework;
tablet weaving; and making
lace-• Blanket Stich is also a decorative stich Start from
underneath and come up
