TEACHING SCREEN PRINTING<\/strong>
\nDelivered by Gillian Steele
\nScreen printing is a fascinating process which may engage and excite those pupils who don’t see themselves as artistic. You will be introduced to the basics of screen printing and how to use printing to fulfill some of the significant aspects of learning within art and design. We will be looking at the history of printing and analysing examples of artworks in order to develop knowledge of subject matter, media and techniques used by artists and designers. There will be a focus on encouraging pupils to give personal opinions about artworks and their own work and ideas. By engaging with screen printing pupils will show increasing understanding of the properties of the medium through the images that they create and the techniques used.
\nA practical introduction will include:
\n\u2022\tcreating simple designs;
\n\u2022\tstep by step processes including resist techniques using a variety of materials to create different effects;
\n\u2022\tideas for using prints as a fundraiser.<\/p>\n

MUSIC & HEALTH AND WELLBEING<\/strong>
\nDelivered by Jenny England, primary music specialist.
\n\u201cLet Children Teach\u201d Allowing children to direct and plan their own learning in music offers challenges. However, the benefits of this ownership can result in greater connection to meaning, enhanced creativity, and accelerated learning of skills amongst other things.
\nWe will consider:
\n\u2022\twhen and how to let children lead music sessions;
\n\u2022\tfacilitating to support creativity AND progression;
\n\u2022\tmusic as a core aspect of wellbeing, and how to promote this;
\n\u2022\tpractical ideas to support leadership in the music classroom.<\/p>\n

GET EXCITED ABOUT SCULPTURE AND 3D<\/strong>
\nDelivered by CAST
\nDuring this session we will show you how to introduce sculpture to your pupils in a way that will enable them to understand the elements involved in producing 3D artwork within the ‘expressive’ element of the art and design curriculum. It will hopefully capture the excitement of creating within this genre and encourage your pupils to develop a curiosity about the arts. They will learn to be inquisitive, persistent, imaginative and disciplined and to work collaboratively following a step by step process to develop and communicate imaginative ideas and reach expressive solutions.
\nThe session will include:
\n\u2022\texamining\/analysing and responding to\/discussing examples of sculpture;
\n\u2022\tusing visual elements to communicate ideas i.e. likeness and expression;
\n\u2022\tintroducing and exploring different media including clay and Modroc plaster.<\/p>\n
