Elaborations
- • Elaboration sharing their artworks with the class via a “gallery” or “performance walk”; for example, walking around the space looking at the works and using positive language to comment on the works and identify features such as similarities or differences, use of materials and elements of art/design, such as line
- • Elaboration performing songs, soundscapes or chants/raps, using music skills they have learnt and practised, such as listening to and aiming to match starting pitch, staying in time with the group or following the agreed plan; for example, following a graphic score when performing a soundscape
- • Elaboration taking images of class arts events (with permission from the people involved), creating an image sequence to document the occasion, and adding sound; for example, importing the images to a software program, sequencing the images, and using instruments and voices to create a soundscape to accompany the images
- • Elaboration talking about ideas such as themes, processes used to make the work, or features of the work such as patterns, pathways or lines; for example, talking with the teacher and explaining the important features of their work
- • Elaboration presenting retellings of stories to peers; for example, through dramatic play using repurposed objects, toys or puppets they have made
- • Elaboration sharing their work with their teacher and responding to questions such as “What is going on in your work?”, “Tell me the story of what is happening?”, “What did you enjoy about making this work?”
- • Elaboration performing movement/dance sequences they have created for other groups in their class and introducing their work by describing their favourite moments in the sequence or explaining why they chose a particular movement

- • Elaboration using digital devices to record their arts explorations; for example, curating (selecting, ordering) a sequence of digital images (photos) to show the steps in a process; for example, images that show how they created new colours by mixing primary colours (using playdough or paint) and adding commentary that expresses their feelings, emotions and understandings
