Media Choices
This quiz addresses the requirements of the National Curriculum KS3 in Art and Design for children aged 11 to 14 in years 7 to 9. Specifically this quiz is aimed at the section dealing with understanding materials and techniques, and it focusses in particular on the different choices of media available.
A widening knowledge of the variety of media and materials available, coupled with an ability and willingness to experiment with new combinations means that children in KS3 have a wide spectrum of artistic choices available to them. From 'classic' media such as pencils and watercolours, through to modern software and graphics packages, children have ample opportunity to choose and adapt media to suit the project in hand.
