Year 2 – Design Technology

Design Technolody – Textiles – Puppet Making

This half term we have been working on designing and making our own monster puppets.  

First of all, we looked at different types of puppets and sketched out ideas that we liked.  Then, we designed our own puppets, thinking about colours, features and style.  After practising running stitch and over stitch, we then drew round a template and carefully cut out the front and back pieces as well as features such as horns, spots, teeth and eyes.  Finally, we used running stitch to sew the features on and joined the front and back pieces together.  We used our end products to act out a puppet show!
