Artistic Processes in IB MYP Grade 1 Visual Arts
This page collects Artistic Processes resources for IB MYP Grade 1 Visual Arts. Learners at this foundational stage work on exploring simple making and creating and trying out different art materials.
MYP Visual Arts is assessed against four criteria (A: knowing and understanding, B: developing skills, C: thinking creatively and D: responding). Regular practice with artistic processes builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.
What learners practise
- Exploring simple making and creating
- Trying out different art materials
For students
Work through the worksheets, practice questions and revision resources at your own pace. Check your answers, then redo anything that felt tricky and explain each answer in your own words.
For revision
Use these resources for homework, end-of-unit revision and catching up on anything missed in class.
For teachers
Use artistic processes activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.
Study work by artists and performers you admire, then explain in a sentence what you could borrow from their technique.
