Learner video: Printing

This Art and design video supports learners as they turn a section of their map drawing into a simple print using polystyrene tiles. Children explore the basics of relief printing, learning how to draw into a printing block, apply ink using rollers, and create bold prints on paper. They reflect on the printing process and refine their techniques through experimentation.

This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, which support the Cambridge Primary Art & Design framework. It encourages learners to take creative risks and make informed decisions about colour, pattern and presentation. As part of the Craft and design: Map it Out unit, this lesson builds confidence in printmaking while offering space for individual expression.
