Differentiation

Learners needing support

Could use the side of a soft (4B) pencil if some pupils find charcoal too ‘messy’ to hold and draw with. It may be tricky to see where the light areas of the objects are; consider discussing this as a class before beginning to draw; could use scrap paper to lean the drawing hand on as this will reduce frustration with smudging.

Learners working at a stretch

Should experiment with using the rubber to create a range of marks in the background; could try out following the direction of lines and surfaces when blending to increase the 3D effect of using tone.
