INTRODUCTION
Education in Art, which covers both Music and Arts and Crafts, introduces children to a
system of specific forms (pictures and sounds) that they can then use to express
themselves with and to represent what they see and hear around them. Together with
language, these forms constitute the symbolic universe in which all human life exists. In
fact, the modern world is so full of messages and images, transmitted by so many
means of communication, that children are constantly bombarded with information.
This makes it difficult for them to sift through it all and select the correct messages.
The objective of Education in Art is to develop in children the ability to express
themselves, to communicate through artistic and visual languages, and thereby to
provide them with communicative competence in a medium which is complementary to
speech, writing, body language, etc. They must be given the means and the necessary
strategies for understanding and interpreting messages in this language. This will make
it possible for them to analyze these messages critically.
The connection between Education in Art and other areas of the syllabus is clearly
discernible from the many ways in which children use the competencies that they learn
in the areas of visual art and music. Concentration, reflection, creativity, the ability to
experiment with materials, to work in a group, and in general to value artistic and
cultural works are all skills that are essential to learning itself. Education in Art
contributes to the attainment of the objectives of Primary Education by, among other
things, encouraging childrens visual and auditory perception (an essential element for
any learning to take place).
The Oxford Educacin Project for the Third Cycle of Primary Education aims to develop
childrens means of expression, so that they can acquire communicative competence in
different areas. In order to achieve this, two specific areas are focussed upon:
comprehension and expression. Comprehension developing childrens ability to
understand and interpret what they see and hear around them involves a systematic
and purposeful observation of natural and artistic features from their surroundings. In
this way, children develop their capacity to read the signs around them and enhance
their ability to express themselves using the language of art. They also develop: the
ability to concentrate and use their imaginations; their creative skills; their ability to
appreciate what others have done; their artistic and aesthetic sensitivity; and their
ability to take pleasure in art.
Pupils need to develop proficiency in both interpreting art and using different artistic
techniques. But it is also important that they work out their own code to use for
expressing themselves. This code will be different for each pupil, and it will also be
influenced by the social and cultural context of their school.
The final objective is to deepen childrens aesthetic awareness. Throughout the course,
they will be exposed to a wide range of art forms, tools and techniques, which will help
to develop their interest in art and their artistic tastes. They will have a series of
enriching encounters with art in its many different forms, including music, song, dance,
painting, sculpture, architecture and photography. They will also be introduced to
artefacts, traditions and folklore from the cultural heritage of their own and other
countries.

MATERIALS FOR THE OXFORD EDUCACIN PROJECT


THE PUPILS BOOK
The Pupils Book is composed of nine units, that is, three per term.
At the end of each term, there is a workshop, which is an extended activity
requiring the participation and involvement of the group as a whole.
Overview of Pupils Book features
A motivating introduction
The book begins with a brief introductory description in which pupils meet
their mascot for the whole school year.
The core units
Each unit of the Pupils Book units consists of nine worksheets. The first
five worksheets cover the content systematically, through a series of graded
activities. The sixth worksheet takes well-known works of art as a starting
point for the activity it presents. The seventh and eighth worksheets are
dedicated to presenting a particular artistic style or movement which has
had a significant influence on the course of art history. The ninth worksheet
uses a variety of different materials (e.g. scissors, glue, paint, wax crayons,
etc.) and sometimes involves cutting out and making models or other
artefacts. Some of the items made for particular worksheets are later used
in the end-of-term workshops.
The worksheets
Each worksheet includes an activity which covers the prescribed subject
content as set out in the curriculum.
A motivating title introduces the activity, and brief, clear and direct
instructions are given.
The mascot for the year presents the materials that pupils will need to use
to complete the activity.
The subject content covered is listed at the bottom of the page for the
teachers reference.
The workshops
The workshops for each term are extended activities that are original and
motivating. They are activities that require whole-class participation and
group work, and help children to develop the ability to work together
harmoniously and effectively as a team. The works of art created in the
workshops will fill both the pupils themselves, and the wider school
community, with a sense of achievement and pride.
Some of the workshops build on activities that have already been completed
for earlier worksheets, using the pictures or objects that children made for
them. Others present entirely new projects which can be completed with the
teachers guidance, following the illustrated instructions provided in the
Pupils Book.

BASIC COMPETENCES
In recent years, several EU countries, including Spain, have worked together with the
goal of identifying basic and key learning principles.
The EU defines the term basic or key competence as a combination of skills,
knowledge and attitudes which are adequate to the context. Basic competences are
those which everyone needs for personal performance and development, as well as
for active citizenship, social inclusion and employment.
The Spanish curriculum, adapted to the specific circumstances and characteristics of
our educational system, identifies and includes eight basic competences:
1. Competence in linguistic communication.
2. Mathematical competence.
3. Competence in knowledge and interaction with the physical world.
4. Processing information and digital competence.
5. Social competence and citizenship.
6. Cultural and artistic competence.
7. Competence in learning how to learn.
8. Competence in autonomy and personal initiative.
The aim of incorporating these competences into the educational curriculum is to focus
learning. As a result, students integrate such learning, relate different types of
contents, use learning effectively when necessary, and apply it in different situations
and contexts.
The basic competences are not considered minimum common learning. In fact, there
are wider learning proposals which should focus instruction on identifying essential
contents and assessment criteria.
The basic competences do not replace the elements presently included in the
curriculum: area or subject objectives, contents, methodology and assessment criteria.
However, they complement these elements by proposing an integrative focus oriented
toward the application of acquired learning.
Based on this objective, it can be inferred that the competences are not mastered
through a unique curriculum area or subject. Each of the areas contributes to the
development of different competences and, in turn, each of the basic competences is
achieved as a result of working in several areas and subjects.
The selection of different types of contents concepts, procedures and attitudes
should ensure the presence of the contents directly related to the acquisition of the
basic competences, or with certain aspects of such competences, but should not be
limited to them. At the same time, the selection should include other contents that
allow achieving each and every one of the area or subject objectives.
The assessment criteria should serve as the main reference to identify the
developmental level of the abilities included in the area or subject matter, as well as
the acquisition level of the basic competences.
Measuring competences is a good indicator of the quality of the education system. In
these terms, the Ley Orgnica de Educacin 2/2006, of May 3 establishes that at the
end of the second cycle of Primary Education and at the end of the second course of
Mandatory Secondary Education, all the public funded schools will perform a
diagnostic assessment of the basic competences reached by the student body. It also
9
Project Look and Think (Oxford Educacin)

Arts and Crafts. Third cycle (Primary Education)


establishes that the educational administration will be responsible for such
assessment, which will be aimed at training and orientation for schools and at
informing families and the educational community as a whole.

Basic competences and subcompetences


Previously we have indicated which are the basic competences that make up our
educational system, competences that by their own formulation are, inevitably, quite
generic. If we want them to serve as a reference for educational activity and to
demonstrate the real competence achieved by the student (in evaluation, for example),
we have to clarify them far more, breaking them down, always in relation with other
elements from the curriculum. In what we call subcompetences, which are not intended
to be more than types of operating statements that are the consequence of the
integrated analysis of the curriculum in order to achieve some functional learning,
expressed in a fashion that allows for their identification by way of different educational
agents.
In this area and fifth grade, these subcompetences and the units in which they are
applied are the following:
