Primary source: QCAA Australian Curriculum v9.0 Prep Visual Arts achievement standard aligned to content descriptions. Queensland's entry year is Prep, equivalent to Foundation in this source. QCAA's Prep non-performing arts techniques and conditions describes possible Visual Arts conventions and processes, observation and school safety; it does not prescribe this fortnight. ACARA's Visual Arts examples are suggestions, not required order.
| Exact code / strand | Official description | Potential evidence here | Boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| AC9AVAFE01 / Exploring and responding | “explore how and why the arts are important for people and communities” | Day 19 opens questions about an authorised real artwork and its named maker, source and purpose. | Our generated geometric pages cannot stand in for real art or establish why a community makes it. Without an authorised encounter, this is a held link. |
| AC9AVAFD01 / Developing practices and skills | “use play, imagination, arts knowledge, processes and/or skills to discover possibilities and develop ideas” | Days 11–18 compare size, crop, open area and optional approved mark processes. | Printed marks and adult-directed cards can show decisions; they cannot prove child handling of physical materials or sensory texture. |
| AC9AVAFC01 / Creating and making | “create arts works that communicate ideas” | Days 14, 18 and 20 can yield child-chosen images with a stated intention. | A first plan is not automatically a resolved artwork. An adult-scribed idea stays attributed to the child. |
| AC9AVAFP01 / Presenting and performing | “share their arts works with audiences” | Days 19–20 offer optional sharing with a real willing person, recorded only if it happens. | A paper puppet, rehearsal, planned audience or pass is not actual sharing. No public display is required here. |
The achievement standard refers to describing experiences, observations, ideas and/or feelings about encountered artworks and using play, imagination, arts knowledge, processes and/or skills to create and share artworks. A child can describe an observation without disclosing a personal feeling or home artwork. QCAA lists drawing, painting, collage and sculpture as examples, and says practical work must meet current school safety guidance. These two public checks are informal teaching probes, not QCAA instruments.
Source erratum: The first repeated content row of QCAA's alignment PDF prints AC9ADVAFE01 with an extra D. The PDF's own key and later row print AC9AVAFE01; that is the code used here. This is not a fifth content description.
