Year 8 Visual Art

Art

Year 7 or 8

In Years 7 or 8, learning in Visual Arts involves students making and responding to visual arts independently, with their classmates, teachers and communities.

Students in Year 7 or 8 spend a semester building skills in an introductory unit based on technical skills and conceptual thinking skills, making and responding to artwork that reflects a broad range of ideas and techniques.

Throughout the semester students build on their awareness of how and why artists, craftspeople and designers realise their ideas through different visual representations, practices, processes and viewpoints.
