Art across School
Teaching Art in school helps children with the development of:
-
motor skills
-
language skills
-
social skills
-
decision-making
-
risk-taking
-
and inventiveness.
At Wrenthorpe Academy, we aim for all Art lessons to be creative and inspiring.
Children learn about a wide range of artists and artistic styles/movements on their journey throughout school. They also have opportunities to develop their artistic skill by practising a variety of techniques, such as: sketching, painting, sculpture.
Children work towards creating a ‘final piece’, inspired by the artist they are studying, which is a culmination of applying everything they have learnt throughout their Art lessons.
Evaluation is also a key part of children completing their art work, encouraging children to think about what they have done well/how they might want to improve their work.
