🎯 Learning objective: I can change scale, eye level or light so my maquette belongs in a safe site view.
✅ Success criteria
  • I can choose a safe, approved site view.
  • I can fix one scale, horizon or light problem.
  • I can say what still gives the proposal away.

⏱ 3 min
🌱 Starter · notice before naming

Can I make people believe it is already there?

Commit to one panel before the explanation. The diagnostic identifies a teaching need, not a pupil label.

Toy scale

The sculpture is too large or small for people, buildings or routes in the view.

Pasted on

Horizon, camera height or light direction contradicts the setting.

Belongs there

Scale, eye-level horizon, light and site relationship make the viewer look twice.

Fix: point to the visible clue that would move the first or second example towards the third.

👩‍🎨 I Do · model one visible decision

Teacher model · decision, action, evidence

1 · Mark the horizon/eye level on the approved site view. Place a scale person before adding the sculpture.
2 · Position the maquette or paper silhouette at its own eye level. Match contact with the ground and one light direction.
3 · Protect Version A, change one variable and compare. Name what still reveals that this is a proposal image, not a completed installation.
Think aloud: “I am not hunting for a perfect sculpture. I am isolating one visible cause so I can explain my next move.”

👩‍🎨 I Do 2 · connect the studio habit

Transfer the studio habit

1 · Match light direction with arrows before adjusting colour. A correct colour cannot repair contradictory light.
2 · One persuasive image cannot prove ownership, engineering, installation, access or maintenance; label those as limitations or questions.
Recovery route: Hold the maquette at arm’s length against a safe local/fabricated view, align eye level and record one before/after change.

Reclaimed Site Integration Lab

Reclaimed Site Integration Lab concept diagramOriginal classroom schematic. Place the form at A, B or C, set one scale/view cue and reveal the public route. The site is fictional and not to scale. FICTIONAL REHEARSAL SITE · NOT TO SCALERESTRICTED ABC EYE-LEVEL HORIZONPUBLIC ROUTE

Reclaimed Site Integration Lab

Place the form at A, B or C, set one scale/view cue and reveal the public route. The site is fictional and not to scale.

Start with A. Make a prediction or observation before choosing the next state.
Transfer: Name the visible cause and effect, then repeat it physically. A click is rehearsal; the pupil’s made test and reason are the evidence.

Digital interaction is a rehearsal only. It stores nothing and is not portfolio evidence.

🎨 Independent · make evidence, not compliance

Independent studio mission

Create a baseline and revised integration image or paper composite. Change one scale, eye-level, orientation or light variable and connect the decision to site/audience evidence.
◆ Supported · use prepared parts, two choices and pointing/saying/accurate scribing; make one pupil-owned decision.
▲ Standard · make a baseline, one visible revision and a short reason.
★ Stretch · compare another viewpoint or condition and explain a trade-off; do not add writing for its own sake.
EquipmentMaquette; teacher-approved site image or fictional site sheet; paper silhouettes; tracing overlay; masking tape; pencil; optional camera.
Safety / accessUse a fictional, school-based or teacher-approved view. No industrial-site visit, material collection or restricted access is assumed. Photography is optional, consent-controlled and contains no faces or identifying information.
Evidence targetBaseline + revised view + chosen site/why + scale method + artist-method consequence + remaining limitation.

Closed-kit parity: Printed fictional reclaimed-space view, paper silhouette and traced horizon/light arrows. No camera is required.

Exit ticket · receive, respond, report back

Complete through speaking, pointing, drawing, writing or accurate adult scribing:

My site is ____. It suits the work because ____. I matched scale by ____. The remaining giveaway or unknown is ____.

AUDIENCE

A named adult says what they genuinely received from the pupil’s work/reasoning before any code is recorded.

INFLUENCE

Audience response changes the Week 6 image, access format, three-sentence argument or privacy/display route.

BUILD Art · Spring 2 W5 · Site Integration

1 · Arrival task · 2 × 2 recall ladder

Response

Adult receipt / lightest prompt used

Enquiry: Can I make people believe it is already there?

2 · Visual knowledge organiser

Key terms

integration
making a proposed artwork visually and conceptually belong in a site
horizon
the eye-level line that helps views share the same perspective
orientation
the direction a form faces
context
the physical, social and visual conditions around the work

Artist-method focus

Anish Kapoor with Cecil Balmond, Temenos — use verified sources to consider scale, void, engineering collaboration and public setting; do not recreate the artwork or infer permission/endorsement.

Equipment / safety / maintenance

Maquette; teacher-approved site image or fictional site sheet; paper silhouettes; tracing overlay; masking tape; pencil; optional camera.

Use a fictional, school-based or teacher-approved view. No industrial-site visit, material collection or restricted access is assumed. Photography is optional, consent-controlled and contains no faces or identifying information.

Visual workflow

  1. Choose a safe, approved site/view and identify its horizon.
  2. Place the camera or viewpoint at the sculpture’s eye level, not yours.
  3. Match one scale, orientation or light cue.
  4. Keep the baseline, revise one variable and name the remaining giveaway.
