# DT - Year 3 weaving

The Year three topic this term is Ancient Egypt. Within Design Technology, pupils are **designing** and **making** necklaces (inspired by Ancient Egyptian art) for a summer ‘collection’ – Egyptian style is back in fashion after 5000 years!

This is a DT textiles unit, so the main feature on the necklaces will be rectangular shaped pieces of weaving. Pupils have also taken time to **explore** tassel and paper bead making - all three techniques will be featured on their necklaces. This week the children will be drawing, colouring and annotating their necklace designs; thinking about their end customers and considering where to place their weaving, tassels, and beads on their necklaces. Pupils also need to plan how to attach materials together and **make** their **designs** into wearable accessories. They will **evaluate** their products at the end of the project.

Please see some of the weaving in the gallery below:
