We are out of school now for the summer, but I have some projects that I have not blogged about yet to share with you. I will update the blog throughout the summer with artsy thoughts, my summer activities, a couple art workshop updates and book reviews.
The third graders made tessellations in art class! How fun. This is a great project to tie in with geometry and other math concepts.
I knew there had to be some easy-to-follow tessellation directions on the internet to save some time explaining how we did these. I found a good site with the same technique we used:

These all turned out very beautiful. Some of the students struggled with the project, but they understood the general concept and created a lovely design.
