Achievement Objectives Being Assessed	Learning Outcomes
Visual Arts Developing Practical Knowledge in the Visual Arts Students will: · Level 2: explore a variety of materials and tools and discover elements and selected principles.	Students are able to gain an understanding of the colour wheel. They can construct a colour wheel using paint and describe how new colours can be created from it. Students are able to create new paint colours by mixing colours from the wheel or by changing the tint, tone or base of a primary colour by adding an increasing or decresing amount of white or black. Students use a range of art tools and materials - paint, pastel, watercolours, coloured paper, cellophane etc to explore how colours can change. Students explore colour in nature and identify hues, tones and tints in objects eg leaves in autumn. Students are able to create artworks that depict different moods and share their ideas about their choices of colours and the choices of others.

LEARNING SEQUENCE

Teaching and Learning Experiences	Ongoing Assessment Approaches
Motivation - what is colour? Walk in nature - bring back objects of different colours - eg different leaves, dirt, flower, sand etc. Discuss ideas about what colour is (looping conversation) Explore the colour wheel (template that includes primary, secondary and hues) and construct own using paint, pastel or crayon. TONAL COLLAGE (see attached resource) Create artworks involving tonal collage using tints and shades of red or blue. WARM HANDS OR COLOUR MIXING BUTTERFLY (see attached resource) Mix warm and cool colours to create a paper relief design of overlapping and intersecting shapes (ideal to modify this activity to autumn colours with change of season also) Or any other ideas that teachers have to develop student's ability and knowledge in this area.	Discussion - teacher to student, student to student, looping conversations.
Experiments with paint mixing - adding black to create tone, adding white to create tint, complimentary colours, (opposite on colour wheel), temperature of colours (warm and cool). Discuss findings about how colour could change.	Completed artworks and follow up discussion between teacher-student, student-student. Art draftbooks - self reflection.
Exploring and experimenting with primary and secondary colours. FANCY FOOTWORK (see attached resource) Produce artworks using overlapping shapes eg hand or foot. Use primary colours to paint. Where shapes overlap, use correct secondary colour.	Completed artworks and follow up discussion between teacher-student, student-student. Self/peer assessment - rubric (generate whole class skills rubric)
Exploring and experimenting through use of tones and tints the expressive qualities of colour. TONAL COLLAGE (see attached resource) Create artworks involving tonal collage using tints and shades of red or blue.	Completed artworks and follow up discussion between teacher-student, student-student. Art draftbooks - self reflection.
Exploring and experimenting with the effects of combining warm and cool colours. WARM HANDS OR COLOUR MIXING BUTTERFLY (see attached resource) Mix warm and cool colours to create a paper relief design of overlapping and intersecting shapes (ideal to modify this activity to autumn colours with change of season also) Or any other ideas that teachers have to develop student's ability and knowledge in this area.	Completed artworks and follow up discussion between teacher-student, student-student. Art draftbooks - self reflection.
