Year 9 Art rotation introduces you to various art disciplines through drawing, painting, and collage. You'll develop skills, generate ideas, and create your own artworks inspired by practicing artists.
You'll explore the seven elements of Art: LINE, TONE, COLOUR, PATTERN, SHAPE, SPACE, TEXTURE creating projects with different media for each element. These will be compiled into a digital workbook showcasing your term's work.

A3 Art wallet - as well as a coloured folder to hand all your work in at the end of term.
The cost of these items will be disbursed.
Google Classroom to access resources for this class.
It is important that you enable emails from Google Classroom so you are notified of your teachers posts and personal comments on your work.
You will be required to present your work for this course using digital workbook (Google Slideshow) and will be taught what this is and how to do this in class.
Student workbook & Slideshow (Digital Workbook)
Student workbook and art folder
All artworks done during the term will be kept in the students Art Wallet and workbook. This is kept in the Art room and can be taken home when work needs to be completed. This work will go home on the final day of the rotation.
Benefits of this approach:
Students keep all their physical artwork while the teacher has digital documentation for marking. This means there is no need to retain physical pieces for assessment purposes
Example of student Digital Workbook
Students are assigned a Google Slides presentation. This is the document that is submitted at the end of term for marking.
Your teacher will collect artworks for scanning when each task is completed. These scans are then loaded to Google Drive for students to add to their assigned slideshow.
There will be a checklist and an example of a completed slideshow to show students the order and layout of the digital workbook.
Marking Schedule
This is the mark schedule used to assess your work. We focus on 3 particular things.
Developing Practical Knowledge
Developing Ideas
Completion of homework
Note: Each year work is adapted and changed
