Year 56 A3 Art Medium term planner 3D Sculpture
Year 5/6 Key Skills to be covered, taken from Lancashire Key Learning Document – pitching at the correct year group and differentiation within plan for different
groups
Be specific in the key skills, and make them more understandable for children. Consider what it is YOU feel the children should learn as well as the National Curriculum:
Exploring and Developing Ideas:
•
We will select and record our ideas in our sketch book, together with notes and ideas about our work and any information we find out about specific artists
Evaluating and Developing Work:
•
We will compare ideas, methods and approaches from amongst the class and with known artists and say what we think and feel about them, adapting them as needed
3D:
•
We will be able to shape, form, model and construct from our own ideas using recycled, manmade and natural materials
•
We will be able to plan a sculpture through drawing
•
We will be able to manipulate clay using techniques such as slabs, coils, slips etc
•
We will be able to produce intricate patterns using malleable media
Possible Cross-curricular links, especially opportunities for English, Mathematics and Computing within teaching:
English links
•
Mathematics links
•
Computing links
•
Write a description of your sculpture for a blind person. Discuss ideas with a partner, thinking about shape and materials the mask is made from. Make analogies and use
metaphors and similes.
Measuring and proportion of facial features,
Produce multimedia presentations about making their sculptures. They could use digital photographs and video clips, and include information about professional mask
makers and sculptors.
Other links
Possible Experiences including visits/visitors/other:
Consider what could augment your planning to really enthuse the children in your class:
•
Use the Egyptians resource box to see examples of Egyptian art / sculpture
Display/Resources ideas:
Consider what resources could be brought into the classroom and what display work could be completed either before/during or after topic is taught:
•
Egyptian Art display on corridor outside the staff room / hall

Session

Key Objective from skills
listed above
(What is it that you want
the children to learn?)
WALT – select and record ideas
for Egyptian art
•

We will select and record our
ideas in our sketch book,
together with notes and
ideas about our work and
any information we find out
about specific artists
WALT – compare methods for
creating hieroglyphics
•
We will compare ideas,
methods and approaches
from amongst the class and
with known artists and say
what we think and feel about
them, adapting them as
needed
Possible Activities including use of Computing and other
technologies, and showing at least 3 differentiations
5 min starter - In Art book, jot down thoughts and ideas for improvement in
painting
http://www.historyforkids.org/learn/egypt/
Ask the children to share the artistic knowledge they have learnt through the
course of the year. Pupil to pupil interviews (ICT links – Recorded on Ipads).
What do the children feel they know about painting and sculpture? What do
they feel they are good at and which artistic skills would they like to improve?
Show the children a range of examples of representations of painting, writing
and sculpture ask them in groups to identify which may be ancient Egyptian
(AFL – knowledge of wider art examples e.g. the statue of David. Mona Lisa)
Once the art has been identified ask the children for their opinions on
hieroglyphics and sculpture from the period.
LA – Research as a group with TA/teacher leading discussion
MA – chn perform a quick research on Ipads hieroglyphics and Egyptian
sculptures to share with the class. Research in pairs.
HA – chn perform a quick research on Ipads hieroglyphics and Egyptian
sculptures to share with the class. Research independently
Show the children some hieroglyphics
How do they think they were produced? LET THE CHILDREN EXPLORE their
theories with pencil, paint, chalk, pastels.
LA – TA/teacher to question verbally about the success of their exploration
MA – Chn Make notes on their explorations, stating what was successful and
not
HA –Make notes on their explorations, stating what was successful and not –
also add why
Once they feel they have succeeded and found the technique ask them how
they could print and mass produce the technique so it was all the same
(MAKING PRINTS/TEMPLATES).
Outcomes/Evidence of what
they have learnt
(Where will this be found? Will
it be in a book? Topic book?
Display? Photographic
evidence?
Possible extension into
homework if appropriate
to enhance and deepen
learning
Children are able to share their
feelings and ideas about Ancient
Egyptian Art and sculpture.
The can identify hieroglyphics and
sculptures of famous Egyptians.
Children can comment on the
effectiveness of Egyptian Art and
hieroglyphics.
Children can create and print their
own Egyptian hieroglyphics.
Children can create a print they can
use for their hieroglyphs.
Chn design their own Egyptian
hieroglyphic to stick in their Art
book and use on their sculptures.

See philosophy plan
below
What is sculpture? What can it be made off?
Children can identify the importance
of sculpture in the ancient Egyptian
civilisation.
WALT – plan an Egyptian
sculpture
Explain that we will be making sculptures from modelling clay /mod-roc. They
are going to be based on the ancient examples we have looked at from Egypt.
The children have to:
Plan and label diagram (with equipment list) link to techniques explored last
week.
Start making their sculptures upon completion of plan (checked with T or TA in
lesson.
Children can begin to make their
Egyptian sculptures from modelling
clay.

We will be able to plan a
sculpture through drawing
WALT – complete and evaluate
sculptures
•
•
We will be able to
manipulate clay using
techniques such as slabs,
coils, slips etc
We will be able to produce
intricate patterns using
malleable media
LA – plan in pairs what their sculpture is going to look like, what size it is going
to be and what detail they are going to add.
MA – create a detailed plan of what their sculpture is going to look like, what
size it is going to be and what detail they are going to add.
HA –develop 2 ideas and select which one they prefer and why
Children complete their sculptures from last week and begin to finish their
pieces off to a high standard so they can be successfully displayed and
evaluated. Children adapt plans and discuss the techniques and finishes used.
Plenary
Ask the children to show their work to each other and explain the things they
have learnt personally and about Egyptian painting/printing and sculpture. Is
there anything they would still like to know? Do you feel the topic was
successful? How could it be improved/ changed in the future?

6. Question
choosing
Vote with your feet- stand at the question you want
7. First thoughts Let the pair who wrote the question say why they have written it and what they think
8.
Guided by facilitator children discuss question
Building/discus DO NOT GIVE YOUR OPINION]
sion
Some questions that may help you to ask:
How do you know that?
Can you explain?
Can you give an example of...?
Why do you think that....?
What are your reasons...?
Is there another point of view..?
Can you give me a counter example....?
What would someone who disagreed with you say...?
So are we saying...? e.g., …that sculptures are valuable?
Does everyone agree...?
Are we any closer to answering the question...?
9. Last thoughts When discussion is coming to a close (or time is up)
Ask children to share their last thoughts - go round and let each speak
10. Review
Look at the 4c’s what did we do well on? What do we need to improve?
