Introductory Information:
Lesson Title: Textile Design: A Lesson in Creating a Textile Design
Grade: Four
Class size: 11
Length of period: 45 minutes, 3-4 classes
LESSON TOPIC AND DESCRIPTION: In this lesson, students will discover what design means
and who is a designer. They will explore different fields of design and will focus on textile
design specifically. Pattern is on of the elemental themes in textiles and students will discover
multiple kinds of patterns from varying cultures. Then, based on the visual information and their
discussion, they will design their own textile on a piece of cloth handkerchief using printing
techniques taught in this lesson.
STAGE 1 - DESIRED RESULTS
A. ENDURING UNDERSTANDINGS:
We are all designers as long as we create or plan something that will be made or
built.
Artists have created patterns inspired by their environment for thousands of years.
Throughout history, textile designs have been considered symbols of different
ethnic groups.
A theme like pattern can be used in different fields of art and also surrounds us in
our daily life.
B. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:
Who is a designer?
How do elements in nature and the environment affect our art style?
How can different objects from our lives be differentiated into patterns?
C. GOALS/STANDARDS (Massachusetts State Frameworks):
#1. Media, Materials, and Techniques. Students will demonstrate knowledge of the media,
materials, and techniques unique to the visual arts.
#3. Observation, Abstraction, Invention, and Expression. Students will demonstrate their
powers of observation, abstraction, invention, and expression in a variety of media,
materials, and techniques.
#5. Critical Response. Students will describe and analyze their own art work and the work of
others using appropriate visual arts vocabulary. When appropriate, students will connect
their analysis to interpretation and evaluation.
D. LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
The students will explore what textile design is.
The students will identify different patterns from various countries and cultures.
The students will investigate various patterns and integrate them with their own
ideas, interests and cultures to create a new textile.
STAGE 2 – ASSESSMENT EVIDENCE
A. PERFORMANCE TASKS AS EVIDENCE (Art Product): A successful example of the final
project will be a printed textile design on a piece of cloth which shows the student's
understanding of different kinds of patterns and demonstrates their effort in creating a new
composition and design from what they have observed and what they are interested in.
B. OTHER EVIDENCE /CONTINUUM OF ASSESSMENT STRATEGIES: Student's
brainstorming, their sketches of patterns, the composition of their drawings, and final printing
can be all be considered as evidence for the student's assessment.
C. CRITERIA:
• Did the students understand different aspects of textile design?
• Did the students recognize different kinds of patterns?
• Did the students use printing techniques appropriately?
• Did the students create their own patterns?
• Did the students take inspiration from the textiles presented?

introduce pattern as a basic theme for making a textile.
• The teacher will demonstrate different kinds of patterns and textiles from different
countries around the world.
• The teacher will share her own art work in regards to the project, which answers

Benchmark
• The teacher will ask the students to refer to the visual information if they think resources
are helpful to giving them ideas.
• The teacher will encourage the students to think about their interests and try to make a
pattern from them.
• The teacher will ask the students to share their ideas, drawings, and patterns with other
students.
• The teacher will put one box of fabric marker, paint (acrylic), paint brushes and pencils
along with one glue stick and beads in the center of each table. She will give each student
a sheet of tracing paper, a piece of burlap, and a piece of rectangular transparent plastic.
• The teacher will walk around the classroom to see how students are involving themselves
in the project and help them to express what they feel and think about their design.
• The teacher will remind the students to feel free to use different materials that they want
to incorporate in their art works.
F. QUESTIONS TO GENERATE DISCUSSION:
• What is the meaning of “design” and who is a designer?
• What is the role of textile design in our lives?
• What is patterns?
• How are patterns repeated in nature?
• How do patterns illustrate a story and show symbols?
• How do cultures and religions affect peoples' art and their creativity?
• How we can create a pattern from our own interests?
G. LEARNING ACTIVITIES:
• Students will observe different kinds of textile design from different cultures.
• Students will learn how their environments have been surrounded by patterns and how
textile design fulfills so many purposes in our lives.
• Students will investigate how nature provides examples of many kinds of pattern.
• Students will see how traditional patterns are still used in modern life.
• Students will think about creating a textile by using symbols, their interest, and
traditional patterns.
• Students will draw their patterns on a sheet of tracing paper.
• Students will put a transparent plastic surface over their drawing.
• Students will paint the plastic surface according to the drawing which is seen under it.
• Students will put the burlap on the painted surface and press it to print the patterns on the
fabric.
• Students will use different kinds of materials like marker, beads, and water color pencil to
complete their textile design.
H. MEETING NEEDS OF A PARTICULAR STUDENT:
• The lesson uses a wide range of visual resources to make the project understandable for
international students. Visual information seems especially effective with students
because it requires no specific knowledge of English to understand and because the
impact of visual language is more immediate than writing text. In classes that have
international students images represent a potentially common language to which
everyone could respond. Also dividing the process into smaller steps and seeing a
benchmark can be helpful to understand the project easier.
