About our Art Week


To link in with Donaldson's report, Ynysddu Primary School have completed a whole school Art week. During this week teachers created their own content with the aim of developing contemporary and creative individuals. 

The Art Week will run as follows

·         All classes are allocated a country that has qualified for the World Cup 2018.

·         Children research art that is associated with that country e.g. famous artists or movements.

·         Each class is then tasked with completing a variety of art activities that week.

·         Teachers have free reign over the activities/lessons and should aim to include an art/design activity each day. Any work that has been completed during the Art Week will be collated in an ‘Art Week’ portfolio for each class.

Areas to consider

·         Planning - children are given the time to plan out their work appropriately and use a plan to impact their final design.

·         Comparing - describe and make comparisons between their own work and that of others/professionals.

·         Reflection - evaluate the methods and results of their own work and that of their fellow pupils through: discussion, reading, writing and reflection.
