ART:

Art Attack: Some great ideas for practical art with nicely presented step-by-step instructions in colour photos. You will have to scroll down the list as pupils work through the lesson, but the clear graphics are definitely an asset.

The Case of Grandpa’s Painting: Pupils have to identify who is the artist behind a stolen work of art. They try to match the work of art to six famous artists and once they think they have a match, they need to look at colour, composition, style and subject to decide whether it is a definite match. This task would need a lot of good questioning to support the task, but the ideas are interesting and there is a nice sting in the tail at the end of the story.

Suited to upper KS2 and lower KS3.
