Hearts & Crafts is designed to increase imagination, developing creative, critical, cooperative, tolerant and dedicated students.
We live in a visual world saturated by a great variety of images spread by new technology, so it is essential to educate children in the visual arts.
As part of the CLIL projects series, Hearts & Crafts offers children a way of learning Arts & Crafts through English. All the materials have been written in a child-friendly language to help children use language in a fun and natural way.
Hearts & Crafts provides children with:
An experience to develop imagination
A means to communicate through visual language
A way to express emotions through art
Creativity and emotions
Creativity
Being creative is an extremely useful ability. Creativity stimulates the ability to analyse reality from different points of view.
Hearts & Crafts encourages creative activity through imaginative work proposals:
The activities allow students to work out the visual language for themselves by adding, creating and inventing.
The children let their imagination flow and follow their intuition to discover their own abilities.
Further reflection on the creative activity helps to reinforce curricular content.
Emotions
Hearts & Crafts is presented as a way to express emotional and personal development.
Both works of art and the process of artistic creation become a tool to explore and express emotions:
The children's own emotions: when they act as creators.
The emotions of others: when the children are spectators of works of art and images of any kind.

Cross-curricular contents
Hearts & Crafts offers a range of resources that support the teaching of Social Science and Natural Science through Arts & Crafts. The main theme of each project is linked to content from one of these areas.
Draw my world TOWNS AND BUILDINGS
Make machines JOBS
Play with colours LANDSCAPES
Cooperative work
Cooperative work in Arts & Crafts encourages experimentation, strategy, discussion development, emotional expression and communication.
Due to this, Hearts & Crafts combines individual work with other types of activities: in pairs, in teams and in groups.
Furthermore, a simple task designed for the whole group to work together is included at the end of each project: We are a team.

Hearts & Crafts is designed to suit the diverse timetable of the Arts & Crafts teaching. The material is presented in two separate portfolios.
One session a week: choose one of the two portfolios.
Two sessions a week: use both portfolios.
Either option meets the requirements of the curriculum.
Learning sequence
The objective of the first side of
the sheet is to motivate
children to be creative.
They have to plan, decide
and develop an idea.
At this point, technical ability
is not as important as
self-expression.
The second side of the sheet offers children an opportunity to reflect on their work. These pages also guide them through observation. This helps them to understand different works of art.

The work in each project is divided into four steps:

2 ART TECHNIQUES
This step contains activities and ideas for artwork related to the children and their experiences. These contribute to their personal and environmental awareness.
The first side of the sheet is intended to encourage
creativity. The children receive
an instruction that can be
interpreted in different ways.
This allows them to express
themselves freely and
develop their creativity.
The second side of the sheet is a space where children can think, work and reflect on the work they have done.

Teacher's notes
Draw my worldTOWNS AND BUILDINGS
Learning goals
To identify curved lines and straight lines
To describe a photograph
Creativity
Encourage children to draw curved and straight lines freely. Make sure they understand the difference between the two.
Explain what a zigzag line is and ask them to continue the one to the left of the house on page 3.
Key concepts
There are examples of different types of lines on page 3, in addition to the lines the students have freely drawn. For example, curved lines on the door and tiles; straight lines on the outline of the walls, the roof and windows. Children can point to them.
Children can draw curved lines (the hands) in green and straight lines (the building) in purple on the photo of Lorenzo Quinn’s sculpture on page 4.
Children can identify these types of lines in a real context. Ask the students to point to curved and straight lines in the objects that surround them.
HAVE A LOOK!

Sculpture made for the Venice Biennale.
There are two big hands holding the Ca’Sagredo Hotel building in Venice
(Italy).
Message: the sea water level is raising because of climate change.
LET’S TALK ABOUT ART!
Describe What part of the photo are we going to analyse: the hands or the building? Is it a sculpture, a painting, or a work of architecture? Make sure students understand the difference between a sculpture, a painting and a work of architecture.
Analyse What do you think its name is? What is its real name? Can you think of another title? Explain the meaning of the word support so students can understand the title of the sculpture.
Express emotions What do you feel when you look at this sculpture? Do you like it? Do you feel happy, sad…? Encourage the students to share their feelings with their classmates.

Children can describe the house they have drawn on page 3. While listening to each other, children realise there are different types of houses with some common elements: door window roof wall stair chimney
Ask children to point to and name these elements on their drawing while they speak.
Key words and structures
curved line straight line work of art
artist to feel to express
house window door
roof wall stair
What can you see? I can see a building.
Can you see a curved line?
This is a straight line.
This work of art is a sculpture.
I like this sculpture because…
I do not like this sculpture because…
Body language
Ask children to communicate these messages using only their hands: - Yes! / No! / Ok! - Come here! / Go away! - Can I talk? / Can you repeat? - Alone. / All together. - I lose. / I win.
Ask children to express different emotions using only their hands: - I am happy. - I am sad. - I am angry. - I am surprised. - I am scared.
Cultural awareness and expressionIn analysing and describing a work of art students develop skills that allow them to discover artists and their work. This helps them to understand the way these artists see the world.Children also learn to appreciate the importance of artistic creations from different cultures.

I CAN DESIGN BUILDINGS
Learning goals
To identify horizontal lines and vertical lines
To identify symmetry
To analyse a photograph
Creativity
Children design the rooms of building. Remind them that they have to draw a two-storey building. Check which rooms they have drawn on each floor.
Children can use coloured pencils or crayons to do this worksheet.
Key concepts
Children can identify examples of horizontal and vertical lines in the photograph of the Taj Mahal on page 6. For example, horizontal lines in the door and windows; vertical lines in the walls and towers... Children can mark the lines using felt-tip pens.
Children can draw a line in the middle of their non symmetrical drawing on page 5. They can compare their drawing to the Taj Mahal in order to understand the concept of symmetry.
Explain to the children that architecture is the art of designing buildings. Use the image of the Taj Mahal to explain that architectural works are also a form of artistic expression, just like paintings or sculptures.
The Taj Mahal looks like a palace, but it is actually a mausoleum commissioned by an emperor to honour his dead wife. It was built near the city of Agra (Uttar Pradesh state, India) in the 17th century.
POSSIBLE DIFFICULTIES
Drawing without going outside the lines might be difficult for some students. However, at this age, the aim is to express themselves freely, not a perfect result from the activity.
It could be helpful to ask these students to start by colouring the outline very carefully.

Children can explain in which moments they feel happy to be at home: - Playing with their toys - Enjoying a family meal - Celebrating a birthday party
Ask children to tell you how they express happiness: - Laughing - Jumping - Singing - Talking

Spatial intelligenceDrawing the inside of a building implies the development of spatial intelligence.
Students understand reality by appreciating the sizes of different objects and organising them within a given space.

This is a collective piece of work where children work in teams to develop an idea together. They then produce a final product and share it with the rest of the class. In their portfolios, students write down the names of their teammates.
Children will put what they have learnt into practice by drawing the buildings they like best in their street. By doing this, children discover the street where they live in a fun way, while developing their artistic skills. They can use the same materials they have used throughout the project: - crayons - coloured pencils - felt-tip pens
To draw from life, children have to first make a simple sketch of what they wish to draw: the building where they live, a shop or a park, etc. This sketch helps children to calculate the space they will need on the page. Afterwards, they can use a pen to trace the definite outline and colour in the drawing. Display all the drawings in the classroom with the name of the children that produce it. Children can add a brief explanation of why they decided to draw that particular building.
Ask the children about their experience: Do you like the project? What part do you like best? Do you want to repeat it?
Show children examples of famous artists who drew from life, such as Claude Monet, so they can see how these artists represented the reality around them.
A different approach
In order to draw the buildings in their street from life, students have to go
outside. However, if you are unable to take them out, they can do the activity inside the school, in the playground, for example. In this case, instead of their
favourite building in their street, children would draw the
school building.
