When I noticed that quite a few of my students were confused by the terms "parallel" and "perpendicular," I decided it was time for an end-of-year art activity. I visited my Math - Art Pinterest page and discovered a sweet little project at Math Activities*. Students worked on this during free moments at home and at school.
*You'll notice that we purposely did the lesson a bit different than originally described.
I love the way this turned out. And, yes...they now can tell me what parallel and perpendicular are! ;)
Their art looks great! Wonderful idea!

These projects turned out so great! Can you describe the process a bit? Did you use tape as the original website mentioned? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteNo tape. Only pencils/pens and a ruler. Honestly, it couldn't have been more simple. The vibrant colors are from using Prismacolor colored pencils. Thanks for asking.
