Description

This unit can be linked with pupils' studies in other curriculum areas on World Wars. They will draw from observation and investigate how artists have responded to war and conflict through textiles, before using their personal ideas of conflict to create an appliqué panel.

The unit relates to other curriculum areas and is an ideal way of visualising thoughts and feelings pupils may have gathered from their poignant wartime studies.
