QCA

Objectives

Children should learn:

  • to select suitable information and media and prepare it for processing using ICT

Activities

Outcomes

Children:
  • Show the class a mixed-media collage, such as 'Guitar' by Pablo Picasso, and discuss some of the techniques used. Encourage children to find material that can be scanned, eg from newspapers or magazines.
  • Ask children to use the various techniques learnt to incorporate the scanned images in order to create composite images, based on direct observation of musical instruments. Encourage them to focus on particular details, such as tuning pegs or keys. Each child could be given a different viewpoint. Remind them of the importance of saving drafts.
  • Ask children to print out multiple copies of their work and use the print outs, together with other collected images, to make a mixed-media collage.
  • use a variety of materials, created on and away from the computer, and use them to make a final image
