Collaging Color and Identity, A Fifth Grade Identity Quilt Project

In this project my fifth grade students began by creating a poem using the five senses to describe how they perceive their favorite color. The fifth grade class went on to create monochromatic collages using mixed media and we combined their collages into an identity quilt in the fifth grade hallway. I'm so proud of the careful thought my students put into this assignment and of the insightful critique we held as a conclusion to the project.
