Math and Art? Whaaaatttt?!

This week a couple of grade levels were exposed to the amazement of how math and art can be combined in a piece of artwork through the magic of fractions and some hungry students wanting pie slices, "Even Steven!"


Be sure to ask your third grader about it!

Fourth graders are finishing up their masks.  Some chose to tie in the cultural building activity by embracing the Dia De Los Muretos books we read in class two weeks ago.  I can't wait to upload the WOW piece ones to Artsonia!  Students may use their mask as a WOW piece this quarter.


Adding some BLING to our masks!

Some students are painting this week as well.  This week was our last week of plastering the molds.  Some students opted not to create a mask and the wonderful magic of TAB is that is fine.  Everyone does not like to get their hands messy, but they have seen the process. 

Students:  Your second W.O.W. piece for this school year is due November 22nd.  Remember you are to have worked on a W.O.W. piece for at least two full class sessions.  You may begin one at home and finish it in the Dragonfly Studio.  Projects are to be finished in the Dragonfly Studio unless previous arrangements have been made with me.  
I'm happy to report many students have already submitted their pieces and I am getting them uploaded Artsonia!
