Description
Objective: Students will be create a patch to be put in a final class quilt that represents a geometry concept previously learned. Students must submit calculations, a rough draft of artwork, a final patch with fabric, and make an oral presentation.
An example of a final quilt has been attached. I made this product free so you can try it or at least check it out! It is a WORD document so that you can make adjustments for your own classroom and fill in the calendar with your own dates.
Rubric includes:
1) Background information/handout for students
2) 2-page rubric
3) Detailed explanation of expectations
Recommendations/Suggestions: Encourage students that they can use the fabric that you can print on, and then use an iron. Available at Hobby Lobby! I provided an 8" by 8" white patch for students. They can use fabric markers, but I took points off for sloppiness. Hobby Lobby and Joann's Fabric has samples of fabric that are cheap and multiple groups can use it. Each student can pitch in $0.50 and you can buy the fabric and bring it for a project work day. Students must submit their rough draft with calculations before receiving their white patch so there are no mistakes!
Give your students a visual way to see how geometry is all "interweaved" together!
