You will need to as a teacher to resource the following for students: Year 7 Thick rope tied up, Year 8 Piece of fabric square with a peg or/and ribbon or a paintbrush to replace peg, Year 9 Xmas baubels or large spoons that have a reflection. This did not cost too much to put together for a yearly assessment. Year 7: Rope drawing - looking at the ability to create volume with tone and then to add in the pattern lines of the rope texture with the volume effect. Some students are able to capture good line patterns showing good design skills and line qualities. More able students are able to capture the volume. Year 8: Peg/large paintbrush and Fabric drawing - This is an exercise in capturing the volume, pattern and shading and accurate perspective drawing of the peg. Some students are able to show this more accurately and can show good tonal variations and the illusion of the 3D form in the peg and the brush. The lovely use of colour in the fabric supports students with strong design skills and pattern Year 9: Self identity drawing a portrait in a spoon or a bauble supports a theme on Self identity in year 9 and students can re-fine their skills in drawing themselves carefully in a bauble. Looking at volume and accurate tonal shading to draw a sphere with the distorted self portrait. Students enjoy capturing themselves having learnt about portrait drawing they can begin to excel in trying to create an illusion of themselves.
