Fantastic, let's get going.","Today we're going to be completing lesson six in our textiles unit and we are definitely becoming experts in templates and joining techniques.","Today we're going to explore how to make accurate templates and pattern pieces.","We will need a few bits of equipment for today's lesson, so let's see.","In this lesson, you will need some paper, some chalk, some scissors and remember, because we're using scissors, we need to be supervised by a parent or a carer.","We also need some clear tape, which is the same as Sellotape.","Some pins and remember, supervision from a parent or a carer when you're using your pins today as well and some cheap fabric.","So don't use nice, new, expensive fabric, try and recycle some fabrics and fabric you can find around your home.","Don't forget to ask permission first though before you start using it.","So a quick reminder, paper, chalk, scissors, clear tape, pins and some cheap recycled fabric.","So I'd like you to pause the video now, go and collect everything you need and then press play when you're ready.","Off you go.","Fantastic, welcome back, thank you for collecting everything you need for today's lesson.","Let's take a little look at our lesson journey for today.","So first, all together we're going to do our intro quiz.","And then we're going to recap our previous lessons.","After that, we will do our star words.","Followed by exploring templates.","Then we're going to evaluate all of the different techniques that we have explored today.","And finally, all together we will do our exit quiz.","It is intro quiz time.","So let's see if you can remember all of that learning we have done so far.","My first question to you is can you name me a joining technique? So what technique could we use to join two pieces of fabric together? A few seconds to think about a joining technique.","Are you ready to tell me your joining technique? Off you go, tell me.","Fantastic, well done if you said sewing, stapling, glueing or pinning.","Amazing.","Now, my next question for you is what is it called when we make a model of our product? So we practise our ideas and we use cheap materials.","What is that called? And I'll give you a clue.","It starts with this letter.","Are you ready? Do you think you know what it's called when we make a model with cheaper material to try out our ideas? Tell me now.","If you said mock-up, you are such a big superstar.","Well done, so we call it a mock-up.","Great intro quiz, everybody.","Now, we have been learning lots in this unit so far, haven't we? So let's do a quick recap.","So we know that we are going to be designing and making a glove puppet of a zoo animal that could be sold in a zoo gift shop.","And last lesson we decided what animal we were going to turn into a puppet.","So I chose a parrot.","We then had a go, didn't we at making a paper mock-up of our puppet, just to try out our ideas and see if we came across any problems. I came across few problems, didn't I? But I have noted them down to remember them, okay? So we have done lots so far.","Let's see what we're going to be doing in this lesson.","It is star words time and it's your turn, your time to join in with your big, loud voices.","I know you've got big, loud voices in there.","So let's see our first star word for today.","Template, my turn, your turn.","Template.","Well done.","Template.","Well done, we've used the word template lots, haven't we? Remember, it's that shape that is drawn to help us when we cut out our shape.","Next one, pattern pieces.","Pattern pieces.","Well done, now pattern pieces is what we're going to be having a look at today as part of our lesson.","So it's a template that forms part of our product.","We cut those out before we join them together.","Let's see what's next.","My turn, seam allowance.","Seam allowance.","Well done, now, seam allowance is the gap between the edge of the fabric and our row of stitches.","So when we make our pattern pieces, we will need to make sure that we leave room for this gap here.","Next star word.","Mark out.","Well done.","Mark out.","Super, so mark out are the lines that show where we need to cut.","So we're going to be using these star words in our lesson today.","Thank you for joining in.","To get us started today, we're going to explore templates and drawing those templates to make pattern pieces.","So a template is the shape that we draw, usually on our paper, and then we use that template to create our pattern pieces.","Let's see what we're going to do.","Now, we're going to first start our lesson by creating our template.","Let's have some things on our screen now that we need to think about when we're making those templates today.","How will we make sure that the puppet sits on the user's hand? So when we draw our template, how will we make sure that it sits on the user's hand? The next thing we think about, how can we use that template to make accurate pattern pieces? So how do we actually use that template to create those pattern pieces? How will we create multiple pattern pieces? So we know that a puppet needs a front and a back, doesn't it? So how will we create more than one pattern piece? And finally, how will we make sure that the front and the back of our puppet are exactly the same? So remember when we made our paper mock-up we had to make sure that the front fit perfectly against the back.","These are things that we're going to have to think about as we move forward in our lesson today.","Now we're going to draw out a nice simple template for us to practise with today.","So remember, some things I would like you to think about.","Think about the shape of your glove puppet.","Is it going to have one part for the finger or are you going to have two arms so you've got room for your little finger as well? Think about the size of the user's hand.","It needs to be able to fit on the user's hand.","And remember, we need to include a seam allowance.","So remember, we have to add on a little bit of extra room on our template because our row of stitches, because it comes in a little bit, makes the inside bit slightly smaller and narrower.","So there's some things to think about.","I'm going to show you making my template and then it'll be your turn.","So I'm going to start by putting my hand on the paper because I want it to fit my hand.","Now, I want my hand to be able to gro through the bottom of the puppet.","So this is the widest part of my hand.","So I need to make sure that I start at the widest part.","Let's put my hand on this where I want my thumb to be.","So I'm going to leave a seam allowance.","That means I'm not going to draw really close to my hand because when we join it together, it will be too small, so I'm going to leave a gap around the outside.","There we go.","So I've made my template.","Let's have a look at that if you want to add a bit for your little finger as well.","So remember, put your hand down on the paper and you're going to have a bit on the other side where your thumb is as well.","Remember to leave enough room for your hand to come in and out and a seam allowance.","I'm going to start nice and wide and draw around where the thumb would be.","Draw around where the rest of my fingers would be and on the other side, I need room for my little finger.","Okay, so have a try now, everybody and see if you can draw me a glove puppet template.","You can have one with two arms or one arm.","It's totally up to you.","So pause the video, draw your template and press play when you are at this stage.","Off you go.","Welcome back, everybody and well done for drawing your glove puppet template.","Now what I would like you to do is to cut this out for me.","So adult supervision while you're using your scissors, okay? Then press play when you have done that for me.","Off you go.","Well done for cutting out your paper template.","Now what we're going to do is explore how we could use this paper template to create pattern pieces.","We're going to look at three different ways.","The first way we can use this template to make a pattern piece is by using chalk.","So for this, make sure you've got your fabric, your template and your piece of chalk, I'll show you, then it'll be your turn.","Okay, so put your paper template on top of your fabric.","Make sure you keep it as close to the edges as you can.","We don't draw our pattern pieces right in the middle of our fabric.","We don't like to waste any of our fabric.","So move it as close to the edges as you can.","You are then going to use your piece of chalk to draw around the outside of your paper template and you're going to use your other hand to keep the paper really still.","We don't want that paper moving around all over the place.","So draw around the outside of your paper template.","It'll only leave a very faint line.","We don't want a big, dark line anyway.","Something that looks really faint.","Okay, when you have gone around the outside of your paper template, I would then like you to cut this out for me.","Okay, make sure you have adult supervision when you are doing that.","So we're going to pause the video, place down your paper template, hold it with your hand.","Draw around the outside of it with your chalk.","When you have done that, I would like you to cut it out, okay? Off you go.","Press play when you're ready.","Welcome back, everybody.","So you have just explored one way of creating a pattern piece using a template.","So you used your chalk to draw around the edge of the paper template and then you were able to cut it out.","So we've just made a pattern piece for our glove puppet.","Let's see which technique we're going to explore next.","For creating this pattern piece, we're going to use pins to help us.","So I'll show you how to do that and then it'll be your turn.","Make sure you've got your pins ready.","Okay, again same start.","So put your paper template on top of your fabric.","With your pins, you are going to pin, attach this paper template to your fabric and make sure you spread them out around, so we dig it in and we dig it up.","And you might need adult supervision for this or even adult help.","I push it in and I spread then all the way around my puppet so I know that it is held on there really secure and really tight.","So just be careful of the pins 'cause they are sharp.","And one down here.","And another one on there.","Okay, so what you're going to do using your pins, you're going to pin the paper template to your fabric.","You don't have to do any drawing around this time.","This template is now held securely in place.","So what you do now is you cut really carefully around the outside of your paper template all the way around and then when you're done, you can undo your pins and take your paper template off.","So what you're going to do now, everybody is you're going to pin your paper template onto your fabric and then you're going to cut it out.","You'll then take out your pins, take off your paper and you will have your next pattern piece.","Off you go.","Well done for having a go at using pins to create a pattern piece.","So I'm just about to take out my last pin.","I can take off my paper template and I've made another glove puppet pattern piece.","So now we've had a go at two different techniques.","We've got one more to try.","So for our last technique, we're going to use clear tape.","So Sellotape to help us to cut out our next puppet pattern piece.","Okay, let's me show you and then it'll be your turn again.","So last time, we used pins to hold our template in place.","This time, we're going to use some clear tape all the way around the edge to hold it in place.","So I get first bit of tape.","My scissors, cut it off.","And then I want some of the tape to be on the paper and some of the tape to be on the fabric.","Just that down, okay? And then I need to cut myself another bit of tape.","OKay.","And this time, we need to start putting it at a diagonal 'cause it's starting to turn around, okay? So I take a little bit of tape every time.","And stick it across my paper template and my fabric.","So what you're going to do, everybody is put some tape all the way around your template.","Just like this.","So you can see, I've put tape all the way around the edge of my puppet.","Now what I do is I cut around the edge of my paper template, just like we did before, all the way around util it is completely cut.","So what you're going to do now, everybody is pause the video.","You're going to put on your paper template, you're going to put Sellotape all the way round the outside and then you're going to cut along the paper template, all the way around until you have completed your cutting.","Then press play to join us.","Off you go.","Fabulous job, everybody.","I have just finished cutting around my paper template, so I can now peel that off and I have created another perfectly accurate pattern piece.","How neat has our work been today? It's been great, hasn't it? Now we have tried out all three different ways of making pattern pieces using a paper template.","We're going to evaluate it, so we're going to decide which technique did you like the best today? On your screen now is the three different techniques we used today.","Using a paper template to create pattern pieces.","Now, I wonder which one of those three did you prefer? Which one did you like the best and why? I would like you to pause the video now and have a really good think.","Which one did you like the best and why? And press play when you have your idea.","Well done for having a think.","I wonder which one was your favourite.","Give me a wave if the chalk technique was your favourite.","Okay.","Give me a wave if using the pins was your favourite.","Interesting.","And lastly, give me a wave if using the tape was your favourite method.","Fantastic.","Shall I tell you which one was my favourite? My favourite was the Sellotape.","Using the tape to create my pattern piece and I liked that one the best because I found using the Sellotape, it really held down my paper template really securely.","It didn't wobble around anywhere, it didn't flap up at the sides.","I found that it held it so nice and tight that when I cut it out, it was my most accurate one.","To finish our lesson today, we're going to think about this final question.","Which one will you use when you create your final puppet design? We're now going to add this to our final design page.","So can you go find your final design page and then join me and I'll show you how we're going to do that.","Off you go, see you in a second.","So I have found my final design page too.","Hopefully you've found yours.","Now somewhere on our final design page, we're going to write down which technique we're going to use.","So I'm going to write my sentence at the bottom.","I am going to use the clear tape technique to make my pattern pieces.","Full stop, and we're going to underline my technique with my ruler.","Okay, so now what you're going to do is you're going to pause the video and you're going to write this sentence yourself.","The bit that I have underlined will be your choice.","But you might not choose clear tape, you might choose pins or chalk.","It's totally up to you, whichever one you preferred.","Okay, so I would like you to write this sentence, fill in your idea, put your full stop at the end.","Then press play when you have added that sentence to your final design page.","Off you go.","Super job, everybody.","Well done for adding that sentence to your final design page.","Now before you leave me, it's time to do our exit quiz.","We have lots of knowledge in our brains at the moment, don't we? So let's see if we're making sure we're locking all of that in.","Now I'm going to show you something and you're going to tell me.","Is it a template or is it a pattern piece? Are you ready? Is this a template or this is a pattern piece? Think about those two words that we know.","Is it a template or a pattern piece? This bit on your screen now.","Fantastic.","If you think you know, can you tell me? Brilliant, well done if you said pattern piece.","This here is a pattern piece and when we have our pattern pieces, we are able to assemble them together.","Well done.","Now to finish our last question, can you tell me one of the techniques that we use to make those pattern pieces today? We did three, didn't we? Can you tell me one of them? If you haven't told me, tell me now.","Well done, I heard some of you tell me more than one.","That's amazing.","So you might have said chalk, you might have said pinning or you might have said clear tape.","Well done if you said any of those.","Now, next lesson, I am super excited for.","The whole lesson is full of practical things for us to do.","So I can't wait to see you then, goodbye, everybody."],"isWorksheetLandscape":true,"expired":false,"starterQuiz":null,"exitQuiz":null,"videoTitle":null,"lessonCohort":"2020-2023","updatedAt":"2025-03-14T12:06:16.85461+00:00","lessonGuideUrl":null,"phonicsOutcome":"","actions":null,"hasMediaClips":false,"additionalFiles":null,"lessonMediaClips":null,"lessonOutline":null,"programmeSlug":"design-technology-primary-ks1-l","unitSlug":"textiles-templates-and-joining-techniques-50ab","unitTitle":"Textiles: templates and joining techniques","keyStageSlug":"ks1","keyStageTitle":"Key stage 1","subjectSlug":"design-technology","subjectTitle":"Design and technology","subjectParent":null,"yearTitle":"Year 2","examBoardTitle":null,"examBoardSlug":null,"downloads":[{"exists":true,"type":"presentation"},{"exists":null,"type":"intro-quiz-questions"},{"exists":null,"type":"intro-quiz-answers"},{"exists":null,"type":"exit-quiz-questions"},{"exists":null,"type":"exit-quiz-questions"},{"exists":false,"type":"worksheet-pdf"},{"exists":false,"type":"worksheet-pptx"},{"exists":false,"type":"supplementary-pdf"},{"exists":false,"type":"supplementary-docx"},{"exists":false,"type":"lesson-guide-pdf"}],"pathways":[]}},"__N_SSG":true}
