DALWOOD Study Pack

DALWOOD

(9op3)

GCSE Art & Design

Academy Closure

2 Wk STUDY PACK

COURSEWORK CATCH-UP! During the 2 week closure, you would normally have 3 GCSE Art lessons. Therefore, it is my expectation that you conduct as much (in terms of time) work, in developing your current portfolio.

Identify (via your teacher) the items of coursework that require further attention/ time.

Take home your journal, and aim to ‘develop further’ your identified coursework items by working on them for at least 4hrs over the fortnight.

For example, spend approx 30mins per day, or an hour every other day.

Things you can do to gain extra marks for your sketchbook work: ● PRESENTATION - Consider adding effects and designs to each of the pages in your sketchbook. Backgrounds and washes of colour. Ensure that titles, dates are added to all work. ● ANNOTATIONS - Revisit all of your sketchbook pages and add comments that explains what you did, how you did it, and why you did it the way you did. ● IMPROVE - Select some key developments in your sketchbook and work into and onto them, aiming to enhance, improve and add extra depth to each. ● REDO - Some previous tasks may seem aged, and/or not as good as you could have done. Consider doing such tasks/ work again. However, DO NOT remove or destroy previous work as this in itself is also evidence of your work/ developments. Instead, redo such work as well as keeping the previous in place.

DO NOT FORGET to return your journal/ sketchbook!

Main outcomes/ assignments: Any unfinished assignments/ main outcomes should be taken home with the aim of completing such.

These could be: ● A1: Pencil portrait ● A2: Oil Pastel portrait ● A3: Artist research project (sketchbooks) ● Collage/ mixed-media portrait (set by Mrs Taylor)

DO NOT forget to return your folder of work!
