USE CASE EXAMPLES:

Each student receives a quilt square about the same topic (i.e., 5 main state symbols) so they can build their own 50 states quilt
Each student receives a quilt square about a different topic, so the end result is a class quilt for each state
...and many more!

HOW IT WORKS:

On each quilt square page, cut along the dashed line.
Students will fill in the information prompts on their quilt square(s).
Encourage students to get creative—drawing and coloring to make their quilt squares their own.
When you're ready to assemble the quilt, glue the white space around each square together to make a quilt pattern.
Once the glue dries, display the quilt on a bulletin board or wall for all to see!

Help your students become experts in all things U.S. states! Whether you're looking for an introduction to the states or an assessment of prior knowledge, this resource has something for everyone.
