Children are given opportunities to experience a variety of art materials and to use these effectively, with creativity and imagination. They will experiment and use visual elements such as pattern, texture, colour, line, tone, shape, form, and space. Pupils are taught how to compare ideas, methods and approaches in different styles and traditions and how to recognise ways in which works reflect the time and place they were made. They are encouraged to express ideas and opinions and to use knowledge to support their views.
