Women’s history month project. This project connects the individual with the group using hexagons that will tessellate to create a large “quilt” collaboration poster featuring 30 influential women and their biographies. It is the perfect whole-class activity to do during Women’s history month or any time of the year!

Students will each work on three individual hexagons. One hexagon has a portrait of an influential woman, the other has this person’s name written in a “stitch” font (to keep with the quilt theme), and the third piece will be a biography. Once each student completes and attaches their three hexagons, the attached pieces will connect with the pieces from the rest of the class to make the overall “quilt” poster design.
