SHS3 Design And Communication Technology · Semester 1, Week 6
Pattern Design
Lesson notes
Learning Objectives
Indicator: 3.1.3.LI.1 - Select appropriate drawing materials and tools that can be used to create 3-dimensional free hand-drawn templates and patterns.
By the end of the lesson, learners can:
- Identify at least eight different drawing materials and tools used for creating 3-dimensional freehand templates and patterns, stating the specific purpose of each.
- Classify drawing materials and tools into categories (drawing instruments, cutting tools, and modelling materials) based on their function in the template and pattern design process.
- Justify the selection of appropriate materials and tools for a given 3-dimensional template and pattern project, considering factors such as the nature of the object, available resources, and safety.
- Demonstrate correct and safe handling of at least three selected tools while producing preliminary freehand sketches for a 3-dimensional template project.
- Collaborate effectively in mixed-ability groups to brainstorm, select, and present a materials and tools list for a chosen 3-dimensional template and pattern design idea.

Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)
Group work/Collaborative Learning: In mixed-ability groups: learners brainstorm to come up with ideas for drawing freehand templates and patterns. This could be a theme, an object or an idea, and what the 3-dimensional template and pattern drawing is for; e.g. objects, forms, gadgets, vehicles, etc. Group work/Collaborative Learning; Project-based Learning: Learners in mixed-ability groups develop many small sketches and drawings based on their ideas to see which ones could work as 3-dimensional templates and patterns. Problem-based learning: Learners in mixed-ability groups identify and select appropriate materials and tools, such as pencils, pens, markers, saws, knives, blades, cardboards, wood board, foam, styrofoam, etc. for their free hand-drawn 3-dimensional template and pattern projects. Assessment (3.1.3.AS.1). The document marks these depth-of-knowledge levels for this indicator: Level 1 Recall; Level 2 Skills of conceptual understanding; Level 3 Strategic reasoning; Level 4 Extended critical thinking and reasoning.
