Your Quilt Blocks are looking great! Today you will finish your final quilt square. Then....
1) Figure out the total perimeter for our class quilt. This means we will put all the blocks together. Each square is 8x8. We will place the blocks side by side, with no overlapping.
2) Now, figure the area of our quilt. How much space will it cover?
3)Next, let's put all the quilt blocks together and "sew" our class quilt. What a great way to show what we have learned about area and perimeter.
4) Finally, write a descriptive paragraph about your quilt square. Remember to hook the reader. Use details such as color, measurements, shapes, etc. Finally, give the reader a strong concluding sentence to tie up the paragraph. We will place our wonderful paragraphs with our quilt. Way to go Pioneers!
