Description

This resource provides an oppor­tunity for students to work with paper and colour, while integrating the concept of numbers into the learning and teaching process. The hands-on experience of being able to fold paper into dif­ferent shapes, patterns and designs, and add colour is an effective strategy to motivate students to learn math.

The section, “The Star Blanket Making Process From the Sewing Perspective,” shows a step-by-step pro­gression of how to assemble a star blanket. Not only does it teach practical skills, it also teaches patience and builds positive self-esteem within the learner.
