5. Task 1: Level activity
Read the levels sheet and try to work out what level you are currently working at. Write this on the back of your work.
VAK level activity: 3 volunteers will stand up and decide what order the work they have been given belongs in; high, middle or low. When the rest of the class have levelled their own work, class will discuss if volunteers have the correct order for the exemplar work.

6. Task 2: High middle or low?
Have the volunteers got the work in the correct order?
Do you agree?
Do you disagree?
Are you unsure?
Why?
VAK level activity: Pupils will discuss work and then go and stand next to other work around the room to identify levels correctly.

7. What do you think? Can you identify the: Level 4a? Level 4b? Level 3b?
VAK: pupils

8. Demonstration: Using oil pastels correctly
Add darkest colours first, use different types of strokes -short jagged ones, smooth curving strokes, experiment .
Press hard where you want a strong colour which wont be mixed with another.
Press lightly when you want to softly mix and blend colours over the top.
Oil pastels slip and slide over each blending easily so change direction when you add a different colour.
Make sure you mix your own colours for example don’t just use a green oil pastel mix blue and yellow to make a different type of green.
VAK demonstration: Pupils will watch and listen to best methods of applying oil pastel. Pupil volunteer to read level 4a marking criteria and have an example of 4a work along side demo.

9. ½ way review
Using the below targets select one of the below to work towards achieving by the end of the lesson
4a: Smoothly blend oil pastels and try to show several areas of tone
4b: Smoothly blend oil pastels in all areas and try to show some tone
4c: Try hard to smoothly blend oil pastels is many areas
3a: Try not to smudge work when using oil pastels and apply them smoothly.

10. Final review: Peer assessment
Check your partners work against the marking sheet .
Are they at the level they wrote down at the beginning of the lesson or have they improved?
What new target will you set them?
