Textiles - GCSE Art Textiles Study Guide for Students

(0)
Moving from DT Textiles to Art Textiles? This 38 page resource guides GCSE Art Textiles students through a component of work. The theme here is Natural Forms and students are encouraged to collect primary source evidence before using a wide range of textiles related techniques in the development of their work. The support document ensures that students address the four Assessment Objectives and are reflective in the way that they progress their work. Students can either use the resource as a work book, adding information to it, or use it as a guide which they (and the teacher) can expand upon. This is a useful support document for DT textiles teachers who have suddenly found themselves having to deliver Art Textiles because DT textiles has been scrapped! Also a great STEAM resource.
