This art and design teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to practise printing a range of different shapes and patterns to produce the design for a flag that can be flown on top of a castle representing its inhabitants.
The class can suggest and model how to improve their flag design by using other materials to produce repeating patterns and shapes representing the matching requests for a castle.
