Year 1 Visual Art Curriculum Guide

The Year 1 visual art curriculum focuses on experimenting with visual art elements like shape, color, line, space and texture. Students will explore different materials and techniques like mixed media and color mixing to create 2D and 3D artworks. Over the 9 week term, students will do activities focused on textures, shapes, and Aboriginal dot painting. They will create texture hands and burgers, geometric shape robots, and dot paintings on cardboard tubes to develop their artistic skills and communicate ideas through visual art. Student work will be informally assessed through anecdotal notes, checklists, and self-assessment.
