Once you activate the slideshow, it "feels" like a website. The kids loved it!

It is written for Simple Machines, but it could easily be rewritten for any topic in any class!

Seam Portfolio for Advanced Fashion Design Students

By Mandy LaCour

This is a great beginning activity to give to your advanced fashion design students. They have to create several different seams and seam finfishes on cotton, knit, and satin fabrics. It is great to give students a point of reference when they go to purchase fabrics for their garments they will be making throughout the class. Students are able to see how each type of fabric reacts to the same seams.

Seams and seam finishes included are:

  • Plain Seam
  • Double Stitched Seam
  • Welt Seam
  • Top Stitched Seam
  • Flat Fell Seam
  • French Seam

Seam Finishes

  • Zig-Zag Seam Finish
  • Rolled Hem
  • Serged Edge

This product includes:

  • Instructions on how to create swatches for the seam portfolio
  • Supply list to send home with students of what fabrics they need to purchase for their seam portfolio
  • A rubric for each of the seams for each type of fabric
  • A page with video links for each of the seams so that you can upload how you see fit so students can have access. I find it easy yo upload it to google classroom and then students are able to watch the videos on their phone as the work through each seam type.

Functional Academics - Filling Out Forms Unit 3 - Life Skills

By FUNctional Academics Educator

Thank you for your interest in my product!

This is a NO PREP, print and go resource!

This is a paper based resource. For the digital version click below:

Filling Out Forms Unit 3 - Google Slides

**This resource is also available in a BUNDLE saving you 20%**

Filling Out Forms BUNDLE - Paper Based

This download includes:

  • 12 background/ information reading prompts
  • 7 different blank forms
  • Teacher answer key

A total of 19 different sheets

Recently Updated to include 6 new background prompts & 1 new form!

This resource was designed to introduce and help students practice the important life skill of filling out forms. This resource is a step up to Filling Out Forms Unit 1 & 2 and includes more information and details and longer more in-depth forms.

Forms Included:

• Voter Registration

• Non-Driver ID Application

• Driver License Application

• Savings Account Application

• Bank Deposit Slip

• Copy of Birth Certificate Application 2

From working with my own students, I realized many were unable to identify key form vocabulary such as (gender, county, & social security number). Many were also unable to accurately plug in their personal information or copy provided information onto a form often mixing up key information such as cities & counties or phone number & social security numbers.

This product will help your students to become more independent, confident and successful out in the community.

Unit 1 & 2 can be found below:
