Paul Klee wasn&#8217;t an Artist I was initially drawn to as an NQT but as my teaching years have gone by I see that when chosen carefully- some of Klee&#8217;s work is very accessible and engaging for young people. He hits the nail on the head when addressing the Formal Elements in Art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> (FYI: The Formal Elements are the parts used to make a piece of artwork. The art elements are&nbsp;<strong>line<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>shape<\/strong>, form,&nbsp;<strong>tone<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>texture<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>pattern<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>colour<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>composition<\/strong>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a video tutorial I have recently created to introduce students to Paul Klee&#8217;s abstract symbols used with colour to create his famous Park bei Lu (1938). In September we&#8217;ll likely be working in non-art classrooms and unlikely to be able to use paint for a while which is why I chose to use pencil crayons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe class=\"lazyload\" title=\"Paul Klee Symbols\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8FBpJoTCf9E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>By Emma Such<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the first Term in September our Year 7&#8217;s explore line and the formal elements in Art.
