Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Session 3 Textiles
2
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Textiles Working with textiles can be considered in the much same way as working with other materials such as wood The same process of developing ideas, planning, making and evaluating should be used Textiles are included in the National Curriculum in both Key Stages 1 and 2
3
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Textiles within Design and Technology Textiles can be considered in three main ways: Independently where the whole process of creating them can be investigated As materials for construction purposes where they can be used with or without other materials Aesthetically for decorative purposes as a finishing technique
4
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Useful information A fibre is a threadlike structure which is either natural or man- made Natural fibres are obtained mainly from animals and plants Animal Hair wool, mohair Fur angora Secretion silk Plant Stem linen, jute Leaf sisal Seed cotton, kapok
5
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Creating textiles Spinning Weaving Knitting Bonding Laminating Felting Netting or Lacing
6
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Spinning Cottage industry Manufacturing process and powered machinery Cross curricular links especially to history The process can be investigated and recreated in school
7
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Weaving Looms Card Twigs Wooden frames Bent card Materials Paper Wool Ribbon Natural materials
8
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Properties of fabrics Strength Flexibility Water resistance Fray resistance Durability Absorbency Crease resistance Flammability Warmth Elasticity

Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Properties of natural fibres Natural FibreOriginPrimary useProperties of fabrics WoolSheared fleece of sheep Clothing, Household items Warm, weak, absorbent, elastic, shower proof SilkCocoon of the silk moth Clothing, threadsVery strong, smooth, flammable, elastic LinenFlax plantClothing, Household items Cool to wear, absorbent, hardwearing, strong CottonSeed fibre of the cotton plant Clothing, household items Strong, absorbent, cool to wear, flammable
10
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Linking properties of fabrics to their manufacture Woven fabrics tend to be strong and fairly elastic Knitted fabrics are flexible and absorbent Bonded fabrics are generally stiff and not flexible but are cheap and economical Laminated fabrics are warm and thick but stiff and inflexible Felted fabrics can be moulded or shaped easily but are not very strong
11
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Classroom Activities The properties of fabrics can be investigated in a scientific manner and classroom experiments can be developed to test the properties of different textiles Water resistance is often tested at school where the children create coats or hats of different materials and stand in the rain!
12
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Task 1 Create a hand puppet using a paper pattern to develop the design
13
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Patterns Research requirements Develop ideas Design suitable patterns Try out patterns with various fabrics Make desired product Evaluate success of product
14
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Practical Capability Cutting and Shaping Marking fabrics using felt pens, chalk, pencils, pins Cutting fabrics using fabric scissors or knives Use of patterns Joining Textiles Overlap using glue or Velcro Sewing a seam Iron on or adhesive tape Lacing up Using zip fasteners Button and button hole Stapling
15
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Finishing Techniques Techniques Printing Dying Appliqué Embroidery Patchwork Batik Fabric crayons Classroom activities Printing onto T shirts using fabric paints Batik bags Tie dying Victorian samplers Christmas decorations Designing a fabric using repeating patterns
16
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Creative textiles Yarn techniques Looping Plaiting Wrapping Knotting Twisting Weaving Fabric techniques Gathering Quilting Padding Folding Applications Macramé Creative weaving Collage Soft sculpture Quilting Patchwork
17
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Investigative, Disassembly and Evaluative Activities Evaluate a selection of clothes and how they are made Look at some soft toys Investigate soft furnishings Look at dressing up clothes in the role play area Investigate toys and dolls clothing
18
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Focused Practical Tasks Join materials using sewing techniques Cut using scissors Shape using patterns Try some finishing techniques
19
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Design and Make Assignments Make some clothing for a special toy Make a puppet to take home Create a costume for a play Make some slippers to fit Make a money holder to use at home Create a toy sofa for the play house
20
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Task 2 Think of a DMA related to textiles and identify supporting IDEAs and FPTs
21
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Early Years Textile Work Feely pictures Feely bags Exploration of wool and string Experimentation with different fabrics Work on texture
22
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course ICT links Use of design packages Creating patterns Planning a room with furnishings Internet searches for historical links Design research
23
Session 3Design and Technology Foundation Course Tools and materials Selection of fabrics and textiles Fabric scissors Embroidery cottons and wool Needles Glue guns and PVA Binca, canvas Hollowfill fibre stuffing Equipment associated with finishing techniques
24
