Unit of Inquiry
Refer to Appendix 1 for considerations for planning based on school context.
THE LEARNING FOCUS
THEME: ENVIRONMENTAL ART ACARA LEVEL: YEARS 3 AND 4 SUB-STRAND: VISUAL ARTS DURATION: 6 LESSONS
OVERVIEW
In this unit, students look at how three distinct artists respond to the natural environment. Students will individually and collaboratively experiment with a range of art forms, materials, techniques and processes to
explore ways of incorporating the artist’s interpretations into a new work that reflects their own direct experiences with local natural environment. They will also describe how they have used visual conventions
when making their artworks (Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority [ACARA], 2016a).
An Inquiry into:
• What is Environmental Art?
• What does the Art have to say about the natural environment?
• How does Art make a change towards sustainability?

ACHIEVEMENT STANDARD
By the end of Year 4, students describe and discuss similarities and differences between artworks they make, present and view. They discuss how they and others use visual conventions in artworks. Students
collaborate to plan and make artworks that are inspired by artworks they experience. They use visual conventions, techniques and processes to communicate their ideas. (Australian Curriculum, Assessment and

EVALUATION OF THE OUTCOMES
LEARNING EXPERIENCE 1: Students explore and observe the natural environment and then identify one living thing to draw.
Assessment: Rubric (Appendix 3)
Indicator of learning: The degree to which the technique and processes of drawing are understood and applied.
LEARNING EXPERIENCE 2: Students explore Aboriginal Artwork from Nyanu Watson (located from the APY Lands region) and identify the symbols and techniques used to communicate meaning about the
environment. Students will recreate an Aboriginal painting that reflects a story about animals and the environment.
Assessment: Rubric (Appendix 3)
Indicator of learning: The degree to which the technique and processes of painting are understood and applied.
LEARNING EXPERIENCE 3: Students explore Land Art by examining a range of Andy Goldsworthy artworks, and then collaborate to make a sculpture that reflects the artist’s work and the environment.
Assessment: Rubric (Appendix 3)
Indicator of learning: The degree to which the techniques and processes of sculpture are understood and applied.
LEARNING EXPERIENCE 4: Students explore Mosaic Art made from traditional materials and learn about recycled art as an alternative. They then use similar techniques to create a mosaic that reflects the
environment.
Assessment: Rubric (Appendix 3)
Indicator of learning: The degree to which the techniques and processes of mosaic are understood and applied.
