In this unit, pupils will need to have experience of the following basic concepts in order
to work successfully:
- colours
- what are a shape, a line and a dot in the context of a drawing.
Before starting this unit, find out what knowledge and experiences the pupils already
have in this area. Once you know the concepts they have already acquired, you can
build on this to enhance the pupils' learning.

Possible questions to ask could be:


What is a portrait?
Where have you seen portraits?
Have you ever seen a portrait drawn or painted only with lines?
Do you see anything in the background of portraits?
What is a self-portrait?
Have you ever drawn a portrait/self-portrait?
Can portraits show how someone is feeling? How do they do this?

Some pupils may need help to overcome technical difficulties or a lack of confidence in
their own abilities if they can not achieve what they set out to do. It is important
therefore to convey to the pupils that each person has their own opinions and ways of
looking at things and that there are many ways to represent the same idea. It is
important also to avoid comparing pupils and their work.
In this unit the most technically challenging activities are those of drawing a portrait
with expression and the representation of a human figure. It is very important not to
make judgements here but rather to value each pupil’s work in its own right and as a
result of his/her own experience.
Encourage the pupils to observe and work facial features. This will help to enrich their
artwork and to boost their confidence in their own ability to create.

Cross-curricular links

Arts and Crafts is an area of learning in its own right but also has many cross curricular
links.

works of art, colour, textures, materials, sensations, experiences etc. and the
group discussions on techniques and themes.
 Mathematics: the use of space, experimentation and come to conclusions.
