Question 1
1. Your school principal has asked you to present a showcase for Heritage Day at your school.
She wants learners not only to create artwork suited for the event but also to present an art
discussion to help create cross-cultural appreciation. You have decided to let your Grade 5
Creative Arts class discuss African textiles according to art elements and principles, as well as
the history of the fabric, as part of the showcase.
Explain how you will facilitate the lesson where learners will evaluate different tribes’ fabric
and report on the visual qualities (Elements of art and principles of design) of each in
preparation for the showcase.
Include images, that you will use in class, of the textiles chosen, which tribe they represent
and why they were chosen as part of preparing learners for the showcase.
