Differentiation

Pupils needing extra support: Less dextrous children may need help to thread the needle and some may need thimbles to avoid pricking their fingers.

 

Pupils working at greater depth: Should use smaller, neater stitches which line up.

Could investigate other stitches, e.g. back stitch or blanket stitch.

Should attempt to add woven fabric in their t-shirt.
