,QUESTION 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. (10)

3. Visual Qualities Analysis
1. Group Activity:
o Divide students into small groups and assign each group a
different textile.
o Provide them with printed images and physical samples if
possible.
4. Art Elements and Principles Analysis
1. Guided Discussion:

their assigned textile using the elements of art and
principles of design.
