This series of lessons begins with an introduction to Year 9 art, including slides exploring ‘why do we teach art?’, encouraging all students to find a way to engage in creativity from the beginning of the year, regardless of whether they think they are creative, or not.
After the intro, there is a series of ice breaker slides which aims to get students interacting with each other on their new tables at the start of the year. It is also an opportunity to explore the idea of visual communication and each student’s own visual voice, which they will be developing over the year.
The following series of 7 lessons (can be adapted to be shorter/longer) explore drawing, using shoes as the subject matter. Students are encouraged to bring in a shoe to draw, or teachers may already have a collection to use.
The beginning of this project gets students discussing ‘what is drawing?’, and explores a range of contextual drawing links to piece together what drawing is/what it can be/what it means to students.
The drawing techniques taught in this unit include memory drawing, blind drawing, observational drawing, tonal range, and texure.
I have included an ‘artroom expectations’ and an ‘art vocabulary’ resource to use alongside this unit of work.
