Identify and name at least five manual tools and materials used for 2-D drawing, shading and colouring, and state the purpose of each.
Experiment with at least three shading techniques (hatching, cross-hatching, stippling or blending) using pencil on paper to show light and dark values.
Create an original 2-D design that combines lines, simple shapes and forms, using a chosen shading technique and colour media.
Present their finished 2-D drawing to the class, explaining the tools, materials and techniques they used and how they made their design choices.
Give and receive constructive feedback on classmates’ 2-D drawings using simple criteria such as line quality, shape accuracy, shading and use of colour.
