Expressive Arts and Design
This collection of clips looks at examples of children reaching (or almost reaching suggesting they will be there at the end of summer term) the early learning goals for Expressive Arts and Design. You can use these clips to support your understanding of what being within the goals looks like. There are questions to support your thinking before and after watching each clip. You can refer back to the ELGs for Expressive Arts and Design on this page whenever you need to.
Creating with Materials ELG
Children at the expected level of development will:
- Safely use and explore a variety of materials, tools and techniques, experimenting with colour, design, texture, form, and function;
- Share their creations, explaining the process they have used;
- Make use of props and materials when role playing characters in narratives and stories.
Being Imaginative and Expressive ELG
Children at the expected level of development will:
- Invent, adapt and recount narratives and stories with peers and their teacher;
- Sing a range of well-known nursery rhymes and songs;
- Perform songs, rhymes, poems and stories with others, and – when appropriate try to move in time with music.
