2nd Grade Quilts

2nd graders (and the 1/2 combo class) have been working on creating a quilt. Children first used paper diamonds to explore different ways in which diamonds can come together to make an interesting design. Children then used patterns to trace and then cut out fabric diamonds. Next, children used sharpies to individualize each diamond. During the last class in this lesson, children glued their diamonds in the chosen design.
You can view 2 of the 4 quilts in the lobby of the school. Enjoy.
This project was made possible by the generous donations of varied fabrics from parents. Thanks parents.
