Shape!




Junior High students are studying the elements of art. For this project we studied shape and created Tessellations!!! (and it incorporates math!!!). First, students started with a 3" X 3" square. We cut from one side and taped to the opposite, then one other side and taped that to the opposite. next, students turned and flipped them to see what they saw in the shape. Students were really creative with the shape. After they figured out their shape, they traced them on a piece of white paper, colored them in with colored pencil and some decided to outline in black sharpie.
