Providing the opportunity for students to explore their feelings and emotions can lead to them developing significant personal outcomes, both in their art and in their self-development.
Use this in the classroom by asking the students “How do you feel today?” – allowing them to respond visually in whatever format they feel appropriate.
Elmaz Soyal, Head of The Creative Arts Faculty and Academy Publicity Coordinator at Aylward Academy, shared this idea after a talk at our recent CPD day Drawing and mixed media for GCSE and A-Level.
Schools Programme members can download the resources from the event in the PTI Staffroom.
