Weekly Learning Plan
Subject	Clothing and Textiles	Week	2
Duration	60 minutes	Form	SHS 1
Strand	Textiles in Clothing	Sub-Strand	Fibres and Fabrics in Clothing Construction
Learning Outcome(s)	1.2.2.LO.1 - Explain the key ideas related to fabric preparation for construction.
Learning Indicator(s)	1.2.2.LI.4 - Fabric preparation for construction
Lesson Focus	Fabric preparation for construction
Previous Knowledge	Learners recall the immediately preceding knowledge/skill needed to engage with Fabric preparation for construction; the starter diagnoses this rather than assuming mastery.
Lesson Objective(s)	Identify or explain the key subject idea/procedure in Fabric preparation for construction. Complete the concrete guided/practical task for Fabric preparation for construction accurately. Apply Fabric preparation for construction independently to a new case, data set, text, material or performance situation.
Essential Question(s)	What evidence or procedure is needed to work accurately with Fabric preparation for construction? What would a strong practical/application response to Fabric preparation for construction look like? How would changing the context, data or constraints affect a decision about Fabric preparation for construction?
Pedagogical Strategies	Diagnostic questioning Experiential/problem-based learning Collaborative analysis Guided modelling Independent application Peer/self assessment
Teaching & Learning Resources	Fabric/fibre swatches Hand lens if available Water dropper/absorbency materials Fabric-test recording sheet
Key Notes on Differentiation
Content	Provide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Fabric preparation for construction. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Fabric preparation for construction.
Process	Use mixed-ability pairs for the first application, then require an individual transfer task. Allow oral/visual demonstration where appropriate while retaining the same subject accuracy criteria.
Product	Use a checklist/rubric tied to the concrete output for this week rather than participation alone. For advanced work, require justification with evidence, calculations, source reference or quality criteria.
Success Criteria	The learner uses correct subject terminology and evidence. The learner completes the week’s concrete product/calculation/performance with acceptable accuracy. The learner explains why the procedure/choice fits the stated context rather than giving a memorised general answer.
Homework	Create a labelled sketch/photo record or small sample showing Fabric preparation for construction; add a short evaluation against three quality criteria.

Lesson Activities
Stage	Teacher Activity	Learner Activity	Assessment / DoK
Starter10 minutes	Show two contrasting garments, fabric swatches or construction samples related to Fabric preparation for construction; ask learners which is more suitable/accurate and require evidence.	Inspect the prompt/materials, record an initial response about Fabric preparation for construction, and justify it briefly.	Not provided.
Activity 115 minutes	Demonstrate the specific textile test, measurement, pattern, construction or design decision required for Fabric preparation for construction using real materials.	Handle/observe labelled and unlabelled fabric swatches; record lustre, handle, crease recovery, absorbency/stretch and likely fibre/structure clues.	Check observations/measurements against the actual textile or garment evidence.
Activity 220 minutes	Learners carry out the concrete clothing/textile task for Fabric preparation for construction, documenting measurements, process steps and observations.	Run safe comparison tests (visual/magnification, absorbency, crease, stretch or fray) and tabulate evidence before identifying likely fabric suitability.	Use a practical rubric for accuracy, technique, safety, finish and reasoning.
Activity 310 minutes	Give an individual garment/fabric/design problem on Fabric preparation for construction and require a corrected drawing, choice, calculation or construction decision.	Match each fabric to a garment/end use and justify the decision using at least three performance properties.	Check whether the individual correction addresses the stated garment/textile problem.

Lesson Closure

Ask learners to point to one physical feature in the fabric/garment/sample that proves their conclusion about Fabric preparation for construction. Complete a one-minute exit response using a concrete example from the lesson on Fabric preparation for construction.
