Analysing an Artwork – Monet

Analysing an artwork is a key skill for students. Teach your students how to analyse an artwork using this one-page worksheet.  It uses Blooms Taxonomy to create higher-order thinking questions that cover describing, understanding, analysing, evaluating and creating.

There are two versions of this resource, one with the word analyze & color and one with analyse and colour.  There is also an A4 colour picture of the artwork so you can put a few on desks and then print the worksheet in black and white to save on printing costs.  You can print this resource A4 or A3 depending on how much you want them to write.  To accommodate really able students I tell the class they can continue on the back should they wish to do so.

Choose to guide your students through this worksheet or use it as a test to see what they can achieve independently.  This is great if your students are learning about the Impressionists or Impressionism.
