Quilts and Counting by 4's

Students spent some time throughout the farm unit enjoying some integrated art projects.  Students worked together to make a class quilt and also to create a growing pattern chart.  We spend a lot of time exploring counting by 4's and figuring different ways to create this growing pattern chart. INQUIRE with your child how they figured out that they would need 21 animals to complete this chart. Also, how did they know that there was going to be 84 legs total?
