Kite Project Teaching Pack ISBN: 0-9550215-4-5
This is a very exciting project for Key Stages 1 and 2, which introduces kites as
a decorative surface combining the processes of screen-printing and block-printing.
The screen-printing process is a lot easier than many people think and this Project
Teaching Pack gives step-by-step instructions and a comprehensive materials list
to enable you to successfully undertake this process.
This pack describes the process of screen-printing and gives you numerous template
ideas and easy to follow instructions. It contains detailed photographs of the different
stages of the process, and many examples of children's artwork. After printing and
construction the kites will fly; detailed drawings and notes on construction of the
kites are included. The pack also contains great photographs of kites made by children,
and some kites are also shown in the photo gallery. With the exception of consumable
materials and equipment the pack includes everything necessary to try screen-printing
and to make a kite which will fly.
Many teachers tell us that they have screen-printing equipment in their schools that
has been lying around unused for years as no-one knows how to use it! This Resource
Pack is therefore the beginners guide you have all been waiting for!
This 71-page A4 pack contains detailed step-by-step instructions and nearly 50 colour
photographs, 26 illustrations and 7 stencil designs. It includes the following:
History of kites
Explanation of screen-printing and its usage
Books and web sites
Screen-printing stencils
Suppliers/materials list
Time planning
Step-by-step instructions for screen-printing
Step-by-step instructions for block-printing

In response to requests from teachers we have produced a CD which includes all of
the images in this pack. This can be used with an interactive white board or other
computer-based display system so large groups of children can view process photographs
and reference pictures. Order with your packs.
We are also pleased to introduce a 50 minute DVD explaining the screen-printing process
in full. The DVD is available at a discounted price of only £15 when ordered with
the Kite Project Teaching Pack. More information......
