Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify and suggest how to make changes and improvements to artwork of a river scene with reflections and a table display card to explore and record how to improve the completed class paintings of a river location showing reflections that might feature in the water.

The interactive presentation can be used to explore how to evaluate a painting of a river scene that includes water reflections of things seen on the riverbank.

This lesson is part of an art and design scheme of work to get the children to explore and emulate techniques used by significant artists working in paint to create impressions of reflections seen in different bodies of water. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
