I have created a huge PowerPoint presentation with over 45 starter or plenary activities for your art classes. The activities are all art-related and can be used in KS3 or KS4 art lessons, either as entry tasks, starters, plenaries or exit questions. Sometimes I put the question on the board at the start of the lesson then come back to it at the end. The slides are made up of questions, challenges, thought prompts, image analysis, riddles, true or false competitions, thunks and more. Some are very general so can be used across any class or topic, and some are more specific and related to different art movements - for example, Pop Art or Graffiti. You can use the slides to generate discussion or have students discuss things in groups/pairs etc. I have made them to be as adaptable to your lessons/teaching as possible.

Pop Art inspire worksheet, focusing on designing a trainer drawing inspiration from the images provided. Can be used as part of a scheme of work, as a stand alone lesson, home learning activity, for blended learning, starter activity, or as an extension task.

A standalone art lesson that is suitable for KS3. This resource can be used to either explore basic key skills (tonal shading). Or is ideal for a cover lesson. Students are encouraged to explore tonal range when shading to create a colourful gemstone. The focus for the lesson is aimed at developing students’ ability to create tonal range, and to apply neat smooth shading whilst creating a gradient with each colour they use. The resource can be adapted so that students can use either a pencil, or coloured pencils of a certain colour to shade the gemstone. The worksheet contains a ‘starter activity’ whereby students create a tonal bar in their chosen colour, which is ideal for settling students at the start of the lesson. The worksheet also offers success criteria, and explanations of key words in order to guide students independent practice.
