I am also a grade two teacher (in BC) and for three years have done a quilt project with my class in which they got to make a mini quilt to take home. They drew a picture according to our theme, coloured with wax crayons, then worked with volunteers to add a border and quilt it simply (adults did the machine work). The students got to choose 4 buttons to sew on. This project has been a hit every year. They also helped design a quilt which was a gift for our student teacher this year. So many skills were learned and practiced in these projects. Also, I made an I spy quilt and backed it with minky- it sits on our "special helper" chair and is loved and snuggled with every day. Quilts and kids go together!!! Keep up the great work. <br /><br />Heather hdmac(at)telus(dot)netjettershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16020151515601841336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307622517630413687.post-41565442229731153302017-06-05T16:02:53.976-06:002017-06-05T16:02:53.976-06:00I wish that I had a teacher like you when I was a ...I wish that I had a teacher like you when I was a kid!
