WJEC Textiles A worksheet in response to the specification: 2.1.2 (a) Natural, synthetic, blended and mixed fibres

Taken inspiration from another free resource which I found on here and some free match me up questions. In response to the WJEC specification 2.1.2: Fibres

A great visual resource to support a simple design task for a double cover lesson. The task can be completed on the double sided word document which is also attached. There are some research questions on the front to get the students thinking about ideas. *please note our students are allowed to use their phones for research tasks. Some questions may not work without access to the Internet, so you may want to amend it. On the front there is a simple apron template for them to draw their design into. As an extension students could annotate their design with how it could be manufactured. Or they could go on to design an accompanying oven glove or tea towel? This task is aimed at Year 7 textiles, however it can be used for a RM or food lesson.
