Measurement & Geometry – 3rd Grade – Make A Quilt Project Based Learning

⭐ This low-prep/no-prep measurement & geometry project based learning activity will have your 3rd grade students fully engaged in meaningful math practice. Students use their measurement and geometry skills to solve problems related to quilt making. This resource contains a standards-based unit in both a low-prep printable PDF and a no-prep Google Slides format – so it’s the perfect activity for any classroom. Students follow instructions on quilt making while measuring lengths, reading clues, counting and drawing lines, ordering fractions, and more. Additional “challenge activities” engage students and develop further understanding of the concepts and skills.

 

⭐ This project-based learning task involves using the following CCSS math standards to solve problems related to quilt making.

  • 3.OA.D.8 Solve problems using the four operations.
  • 3.NBT.A.2 Fluently adds and subtracts within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
  • 3.NF.A.2 Understand and represent a fraction as a number on the number line.
  • 3.NF.A.3 Explain the equivalence of fractions in special cases and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
  • 3.MD.B.3 Draw a scaled picture graph and scaled bar graph to represent a data set with several categories. Solve 1 and 2 step problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs.
  • 3.MD.B.4 Generate measurement data by measuring lengths using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. Show the data by making a line plot.
  • 3.MD.C.5 Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures.
  • 3.MD.C.6 Measure areas by counting unit squares.
  • 3MD.C.7 Relate area to the operations of multiplication and addition.
  • 3.MD.D.8 Solve real world problems involving perimeters of polygons.
  • 3.G.A.1 Understand that shapes in different categories may share attributes.
  • 3.G.A.2 Partition shapes into parts with equal areas. Express the area of each part as a unit fraction of the whole.

 

Key Features:
