Pupil's pro<strong>file</strong><br />

Pupil B had some skills from which to draw as the project started but Evidence groups<br />

suffered from a short attention span, often not sustaining study or<br />

building upon an evaluation of previous work. When she was<br />

involved or engaged in group work, she showed some creative flair<br />

but inconsistency hindered progression.<br />

Context<br />

In this project, pupils took fish as their theme, looking at how they can<br />

be used decoratively <strong>and</strong> symbolically. Learning in the project was enriched by working with the biology <strong>and</strong><br />

English departments.<br />

In the first sequence of activities, pupils explored shape, surface, texture <strong>and</strong> detail based on their<br />

observations of a variety of frozen fish. <strong>The</strong>y also explored drawing <strong>and</strong> mark-making techniques using a<br />

variety of media.<br />

Observational drawing of a fish<br />

Assessment commentary<br />

Pupil B’s drawing shows that she has concentrated on work at a sustained <strong>level</strong> <strong>and</strong> developed some<br />

technical skills.<br />

Creating art, craft <strong>and</strong> <strong>design</strong>:<br />

Pupil B’s drawing shows that she has investigated purposefully. She has worked from first-h<strong>and</strong><br />

observations, using line <strong>and</strong> tone, to record what she could see. She has understood the qualities of<br />

different materials, using the pencil to follow the form for instance.<br />

Next steps<br />

To progress, Pupil B needs to:<br />

■ further develop <strong>and</strong> practice her drawings skills (including her observation skills).<br />

Imaginative drawing<br />

Context<br />

In this project, pupils took fish as their theme, looking at how they can be used decoratively <strong>and</strong> symbolically.<br />

Learning in the project was enriched by working with the biology <strong>and</strong> English departments.<br />

In this sequence of activities, pupils developed drawings they had done of fish into a study of an imagined<br />

composite fish. <strong>The</strong>y looked at images of fish created by artists as well as photographs of a wide range of<br />

exotic <strong>and</strong> colourful fish. <strong>The</strong> aim was to eventually create a storyboard for a short animation.<br />

<strong>The</strong> teacher observed Pupil B reverting to a comic style <strong>and</strong> not using any of the contextual material she<br />

could have used to synthesise an original approach.<br />
