Consider smart or modern textile technologies when making a sports kit
This STEM activity is one of a series of resources designed to allow learners to use the theme of sport to develop their knowledge and skills in Design and Technology. This resource focusses on designing a kit for a national sports team.
Students will consider the colours used in different national flags and existing kits. They will then produce their own design for a national team of their choice, which makes use of smart or modern textiles technologies.
