Activities in this teaching pack include a display poster to describe how artists can depict light and shadow in artwork of different landscapes and a worksheet to identify and record how light can move across an object to create matching shadow shapes in artwork.

The interactive presentation can be used to explore how to select and add different shadows to show how light can fall on objects depicted and modelled in paintings.

This lesson is part of an art and design scheme of work to get the children to develop and practise different painting techniques when creating a landscape portraying a scene in the local area as part of the school neighbourhood. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
