This lesson plan outlines a 2 hour art and ICT lesson with the following learning objectives: for students to participate in a discussion about other artists' work and to use ICT to create art. The lesson involves students discussing an example piece of art, taking photos around the school with digital cameras, uploading the photos to computers, and using software to manipulate the images. Teaching assistants will help facilitate discussions and assist students. The lesson aims to have students consider composition and techniques when discussing and creating their own digital artworks based on photographs.

- 1. ESAD304 Carly Peart Year 4 Lesson Plan: Art and ICT Time Subject NC Ref Learning Obj. Assessment for Learning Key Questions, Teaching & Learning Vocabulary Resources Risk Assessment 2 hours Art 3a, 5a, 5c I can participate in a discussion about other artists’ work. I can use ICT to create art. All should be able to discuss what they like/dislike about another artists work. Most should be able to use a digital camera to take and upload a photo onto a computer. Some should be able to the software to further manipulate the image creatively. TA to work alongside BA children to encourage responses in intro. TA to assist groups as needed in main activity. TA not in 2nd half of session. Intro: Introduce my work, but don’t discuss with them that it’s mine. Show them the sketchbook work leading up to it. What do they like about it? What do they dislike it? How do you think the artist created it? What equipment do you think they needed? Think about the composition of the work. How has the artist considered composition here? Discuss the process the artist used to create the work, and discuss with them how we are going to be doing something similar; using this work as a stimulus to create our own digital work. Main Activity: Theme; our school. Discuss how we will be taking a photo of our school, and then digitally manipulating it, then working into it with drawing if they choose. Discuss how we could take a photo. What do we need to think about? (light, angle, zoom factor, etc…) Divide class into 8 groups (8 digital cameras); 3 or 4 in a group (3 away for G&T day at university).

- 2. ESAD304 Carly Peart Weather permitting, take them into the outdoor area and in groups, find something interesting to photograph. Otherwise remain indoors and give children parameters of Year 3/4 corridor and our classroom. Children return to computer and upload photo (have spare as a back up in case this doesn’t work). Upload image into 2Simple software, and encourage children to manipulate it using the software. Can they slice it like the artist did? What might they do differently? Have they thought about merging two photos? How do you think we could do that? How could we input our own drawing (might have to print it off). Plenary: Feedback each groups work, and discuss the different and varied outcomes. Present final images to rest of the class. How do they differ from the original piece we looked at? What have we learnt today? How did we find using the ICT? Did we think about how to take the photo, or just carelessly take any old photo? 2
