In this unique book, you'll find dozens of creative projects that make a natural connection between math and art. Students make “stained glass windows” to explore geometry, create a “multiplication house” to reinforce basic multiplication facts, design "fraction flags" and make “place value” snakes! Plus: projects involving number sense, measurement, patterns, symmetry, statistics, and more. Includes easy step-by-step directions. Geared to the NCTM standards.
I used several ideas for art from this book; will probably go back to this as a resource again. Some great ready- to-use ideas with math connections, and some that need more preparation.
Not every project suited my programme or my students' needs but several of them did, so the book was well worth it. I'm a big fan of the Fraction Ice Cream Sundaes!
