2027 PP2 Creative Activities curriculum designs should help you plan, practise or review a clear learning goal. This page combines guidance for using curriculum designs, an illustrative subject example, a follow-up task and general KCSERevision resource links. Adapt the activity to the current curriculum and the learning already taught in class.
PP2 Creative Activities: KCSERevision resources
PP2 Creative Activities: further practice
Tell a familiar short story and invite the learner to represent one event through a drawing, movement or model. Ask what their choices show rather than guessing the intended meaning. Offer an opportunity to add a detail after discussion. The explanation and participation matter as much as a neat finished product. Keep the activity playful and brief. Let the child respond by talking, pointing, moving or making before expecting a written response.
Planning check — PP2 Creative Activities curriculum designs: Use the official curriculum design as the reference for outcomes. Compare a commercial teaching resource against it; the presence of a grade label is not proof that every outcome is covered.
PP2 Creative Activities: turn an outcome into evidence of learning
A curriculum design sets out intended learning. Begin with the current official design used by the school, identify the relevant strand and outcome, and read the associated scope before selecting supplementary materials. An outcome is a destination for learning; the title of a commercial resource is not proof that the destination has been reached.
- Locate the outcome. Copy the relevant outcome accurately into the planning record and note its source. Identify the action the learner should demonstrate, such as explain, compare, calculate, create or evaluate.
- Decide what evidence would count. Use the example on this page to distinguish doing an activity from demonstrating understanding. A completed page may show participation; a justified response can reveal the intended reasoning.
- Match activity and evidence. Choose a task whose demand fits the outcome, available time and learners. Avoid assigning a long task that mainly measures copying when the outcome concerns explanation.
- Review the match. After the activity, compare actual responses with the intended evidence. Record a gap that needs teaching and check whether the task itself gave learners a fair opportunity to demonstrate the outcome.
For a coverage check, use columns for outcome, planned activity, evidence collected and next action. Leave an outcome unconfirmed when the evidence is missing. This makes the record useful for planning instead of presenting a ticked list as proof of mastery.
Worked teaching example: representing an idea through marks and shapes
Illustrative activity: A child chooses a familiar place and uses large shapes or drawn marks to show something noticed there.
Task
Ask what the picture represents and invite the child to describe one choice. Offer materials without prescribing a single finished image.
Worked reasoning or expected evidence
A meaningful explanation connects a mark or shape with the child’s intended idea. The work need not resemble an adult drawing to communicate something. Observe deliberate choices and the child’s own account rather than assessing only neatness.
A common difficulty to check
Correcting every mark can replace the child’s decision with the adult’s. Ask about the intention before offering a model.
Extend or adapt the task
Invite the child to add one detail and explain its role. Display the work with the child’s description if appropriate.
PP2: move from a model to a small independent choice
Begin with a familiar example and invite the child to make a related choice without copying every step. Ask a brief question such as what comes next, which belongs together or how the child knows. Accept an explanation through talk, gesture or a simple drawing. An adult can read any text that exceeds the child’s current reading experience. Change only one feature when checking transfer. Keep the activity short and describe progress through participation and increasing independence rather than comparing children with a shared score.
Coverage evidence for this example
Choose a relevant outcome from the current design. Explain which part of the response above would demonstrate it, what evidence would be insufficient, and what another task should check. The activity is an illustration; the official design determines the scope.
Using the resource directory
These links open general collections. Choose the correct level, subject and topic on the destination page. Use each resource’s stated year and curriculum; 2027 is the preparation target for this page.
