An instructor's manual and student activity guide on tailoring are provided in this set of prevocational education materials which focuses on the vocational area of trade and industry. (This set of materials is one of ninety-two prevocational education sets arranged around a cluster of seven vocational offerings: agriculture, home economics, distributive education, health occupations, world of work, trade and industry, and office occupations.) The instructor's guide is organized into the following elements: title of activity, duration of activity (seven to twelve periods), activity goals, eighteen instructional objectives, related vocational clusters, and activity implementation (description, materials needed, safety considerations, teacher preparation prior to class, during the class, follow-up activities, answer key to student check point activities, and masters for duplication [e.g., checksheets, patterns]). The student activity guide provides step-by-step instructions (narrative and illustrations) for completing each instructional objective (e.g., prepare sewing machine for sewing, identify pattern pieces for apron, pin pattern to fabric). At the end of each set of instructions is a student check point (evaluation activity). Occupational descriptions for sewing machine operators and hemmers conclude the document. (JH)
