Book Quilt Novel Study Activity - Final Project for ANY Novel

Need a creative digital activity for students to apply skills from their novel? Let them create a "Book Quilt" to represent 9 literary elements seen in the text. Whether a whole class, book club, or independent novel, this project can be applied to any text!

Each "quilt patch" focuses on a different literary skill, requiring students to use text evidence and critical thinking to represent the details in a meaningful way. When each "patch" is connected, the final product becomes a 2' square "quilt" that depicts essential text information.

This activity can be assigned individually or divided amongst group members of a book club! A great assessment option, students can show what they know beyond just taking a test!
