First Level: Art & Design

E & O: I can create a range of visual information through observing and recording from my experiences across the curriculum (EXA 1-04a)

End of Level Benchmarks

Records directly from experiences across the curriculum, for example, observes and sketches a view from a window, features of the built environment, pets, self or others.

Recognises and names most of the visual elements: line, shape, form, colour, tone, pattern, texture.

When creating images and objects to express ideas, thoughts and feelings:

  • chooses and uses technology and a range of media;
  • shows understanding of basic colour theory, for example, which secondary colours are made from mixing primary colours;
  • shows understanding of the concept of scale, for example, represents mountains as bigger than people.
