Sculpture and 3D
Sculpture and 3D: Clay houses
Exploring the way clay can be shaped and joined, children learn a range of essential skills for working with this medium. They learn about the sculpture of Rachel Whiteread and create their own clay house tile in response.
Craft and Design
Craft and design: Map it out
Responding to a design brief, children create a piece of art that represents their local area using a map as their stimulus. They learn three techniques for working creatively with materials (felt making, recreating stained glass effects and adapting simple tile prints) and at the end of the project, evaluate their design ideas, choosing the best to meet the brief.
