• Description:

  The MS Word document comprises the Grade 7 Creative Arts and Sports Paper 1 (Project) Mid Term 2 Exam 2025 with Marking Scheme. The PDF version is also available upon your request.

  The exam paper, titled "CREATIVE ARTS AND SPORTS (Project) Paper 1," is an integrated project-based assessment designed for Grade 7 learners. It is scheduled to be undertaken over a duration of 3 months (during Term II, indicated as May to August, though a placeholder for "Specify Term, e.g., Term III (September to November)" is also present). Learners are expected to work with the guidance of their teacher, and the assessment scores from this project will form part of their final summative assessment in the Creative Arts and Sports subject. The project will be assessed in phases, with each milestone scored using provided scoring guides and rubrics, which should be accessible to learners.

  The central theme of the project is a "Community Wellness and Fitness Fair," an event aimed at promoting healthy living, physical activity, and overall well-being within the school and local community. The event will feature informative visual displays, energetic performances, short dramatic presentations about health, and opportunities for participation in physical activities.

  Learners are required to carry out the following four main tasks in preparation for and participation in the event:

  • Task 1: Visual Arts - Educational Posters or Visual Aids
    • Individually, learners will conduct research on topics related to health, hygiene, nutrition, exercise, or mental well-being suitable for the community. They are to make notes and produce sketches to conceptualize ideas for posters or visual aids, which should be included in an assessment portfolio.
    • Each learner must create at least two distinct educational posters or visual aids (e.g., diagrams of exercises, healthy food charts, hygiene illustrations) using a variety of available materials (cardboard, paper, paint, markers, collage materials, etc.). Computer applications can also be used for design and layout.
    • The created pieces must clearly connect to the "Wellness and Fitness" theme, present accurate and easy-to-understand information, use suitable color schemes and illustrations/graphics, feature legible lettering and an organized layout, and demonstrate neatness and appropriate finishing.
    • Finally, learners will set up an informative display area during the fair to showcase their created posters and visual aids.
  • Task 2: Music and Dance - Energetic Performance
    • Learners need to select or create a piece of music or dance (original or existing) that is energetic, promotes movement or physical activity, or celebrates vitality. The performance should last 2-3 minutes.
    • They will train the chosen piece with a group of 8-12 members, focusing on energy, rhythm, clear vocal execution (if applicable), musicality, coordinated body movements suitable for physical activity (choreography, technique, synchrony), appropriate instrumentation/accompaniment, and suitable costumes or active wear reflecting the fitness/energy theme.
    • A written synopsis of the selected piece is required, outlining its style, key wellness/fitness message, a summary of movements or musical elements, and a description of the costumes/attire with justification for their appropriateness.
    • Each learner should take a lead role in the performance (e.g., lead dancer, main vocalist, key instrumentalist).
    • The group performance must adhere to elements such as stage presence, enthusiasm, vocal energy, artistic passion, focused concentration, and expressiveness.
    • The piece will be performed during the "Community Wellness and Fitness Fair."
  • Task 3: Theatre - Short Theatrical Piece on Health/Wellness
    • In groups, learners will brainstorm ideas for an original and creative short theatrical piece (skit or mime) highlighting a health, wellness, or fitness-related issue or benefit.
    • Individually or in pairs, they will develop an outline and script (or mime sequence) for a 2-3 minute performance.
    • The piece should have a clear outline (beginning, middle, end), defined character(s), setting (e.g., doctor's visit, playground), and convey a clear, coherent, and educational or encouraging message about wellness.
    • The performance will be judged on the clarity and impact of the health message, vocal delivery/physical expression, gestures, body language, facial expressions, and audience engagement.
    • The theatrical piece will be performed during the fair.
  • Task 4: Sports - Demonstration/Facilitation of Physical Activity
    • Learners, in small teams of 3-5 members, will choose a sport or physical activity (e.g., simple athletics skills, fun relay race, basic moves from a team sport) to demonstrate or facilitate at the fair, aiming to encourage community participation in fitness.
    • The task involves:
      • Exploring the chosen activity through discussions, videos, research on health benefits, and understanding how to teach it simply. Findings are to be presented in a format of their choice (oral, written, pictorial, digital, etc.).
      • Improvising simple materials required for the activity if necessary.
      • Organizing and preparing to demonstrate or facilitate the activity for various age groups at the fair, emphasizing clear instruction and encouragement.
      • Identifying the key fitness components or health benefits associated with the chosen activity.
      • Reflecting on the preparation process, personal fitness development, and the promotion of community wellness.
    • During the "Community Wellness and Fitness Fair," the team will demonstrate or facilitate their chosen physical activity, inviting attendees to participate.
