Sketchbooks in Art

Developing the use of sketchbooks has been a focus this year allowing children to document their journey in Art as they gain further knowledge and learn new skills. Sketchbooks are at the heart of our art curriculum and allow children to develop their ability and to be individual and creative artists.

We use sketchbooks in a variety of ways, including: 

  • to record ideas and information about artists, architects and designers 
  • to collect and annotate visual examples eg photographs, pictures
  • to explore and develop ideas 
  • to investigate the visual elements of art
  • to develop art vocabulary
  • to practise and develop art skills
  • to evaluate art work
