Success Criteria

I can print the third layer of my print    

I can ink a block correctl

I can follow instructions of how to print

Main activity

Children this week will be printing the third layer and will be left with an image that has three colours to it. 

Looking at your design from last week in your sketch books decide what you want to stay the colour you printed last week. Children will need to carefully cut away the part of the plate that they want to keep the same as the second colour applied the previous week.

Ink up the plate using printing ink and roller with your third colour.  Lay the plate carefully on your print from last week lining up the print, children need to be careful not to mark the page with ink and leave enough room for children to create repeated print. Children then need to rub over the back of the plate with palm of their hand or use a clean roller to create an image transfer. Children should then lift the plate to reveal final three coloured print.

Main activity

First children design and sketch a simple image in the style of Paul Catherall looking back at his work to support this. When happy with image (keep it simple) children need to colour their image using three colours the back ground colour should be the darkest and gradually get lighter. Anything on their plate that the children want to keep white the children need to cut into the poly print sheet so that this not covered by ink during the first print. Ink up the plate using printing ink and roller.  Lay the plate carefully on the paper, children need to be careful not to mark the page with ink and leave enough room for children to create repeated print. Children then need to rub over the back of the plate with palm of their hand to create an image transfer.
