( 10 minutes max ) Task 1 : Using ‘Word’ Prepare an introduction sheet explaining the task - to add to your folder .
( 35 minutes max ) Task 2 : This lesson, (plus today’s homework), should be to gather together 10-12 images of iconic designs and add them to your work folder (“Right mouse click” and “save” will collect most images) You can download blank stamp design templates by selecting the images you want from those shown here. You could find your own and adapt those of you prefer. You will almost certainly need to resize the images and combine them in Coreldraw ( and Corel Photopaint ) or another software package with which you are familiar. Now design your own stamps.
( 10 minutes max ) Task 3 :
Now open a “Word” document and comment on the work you have done Try to find out about the designs you have used. If this task is incomplete then print out or save you. It won’t be acceptable that you just have pictures. Notes must always be added to explain what you have seen and analysed in the pictures you choose.
Spend the last 6-7 minutes making sure you have printed the comments you wrote and your images.
