Learning Objective
Software - Websites - Activities
Children explore how to convey movement in their work. They explore dynamic activities such as sport, dance, drama and music as a starting point for making work in two dimensions. They look at how the idea of movement is shown in different kinds of art, such as photography, illustrations, cartoons, paintings, prints, and experiment with different methods and techniques to show movement.

| Evaluating and developing work |
| Children should learn |
to review what they and others have done and say what they think and feel about it
to identify what they might develop in their future work
Use photographs to help children evaluate finished work. Children place thumbnail images in order from most to least favourite.
Take digital photographs of finished sculpture, crop image from background and experiment with placing sculpture in different environments.
