The aim of this unit of learning was to engage students in the process to make and design a ‘story light-box’ using mixed media (print, paint, textiles, graphics) inspired by a story from the Hans Christian Andersens fairy tale book illustrated by Harry Clarke. The final piece was a lightbox using some or all of the elements explored (printing, textiles, paint, mixed media and graphic design) communicating a story. The lessons also depicted evidence of assessment and evaluation throughout. Differentiation and success criteria are also illustrated.
