Drawing and Painting in IB MYP Grade 4 Visual Arts
Drawing and Painting is part of IB MYP Grade 4 Visual Arts. At this advancing stage (ages 14–15), learners work on developing control of line, shape and colour, developing personal style in drawing and painting and producing advanced, technically skilled artwork.
MYP Visual Arts is assessed against four criteria (A: knowing and understanding, B: developing skills, C: thinking creatively and D: responding). Regular practice with drawing and painting builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.
What learners practise
- Developing control of line, shape and colour
- Developing personal style in drawing and painting
- Producing advanced, technically skilled artwork
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 drawing and painting 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.
