Stories in Quilts

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Have your class analyze the narrative art in quilts. They identify elements in this domestic art and the stories they tell. They define a story quilt, view an example, and analyze the work of Harriet Power. This is a great instructional activity to teach story elements and link them to a concrete object. The language of art and culture is also woven into this unique activity.
