数学を使った描画: 図形、パターン、測定 (8 ～ 12 歳) (継続中)

This is an ongoing class that is intended to be a fun intersection between math and art. As an ongoing class, students can drop in at any time. Art instruction will focus on the elements of shape, line, and pattern. Math skills reinforced include: measuring, tracing, sequencing, making patterns, and more. Many of the drawings we create will be more abstract in order to emphasize the connections between math and art. 

The class is structured as follows: 10 minutes for check in and slide presentation which may include: math and art vocabulary, photo references, art skills, art historical connection, 35 minutes for drawing, 10 minutes for sharing. 

The following is a sequence of 12 lesson plans. When these 12 lessons are complete the cycle will begin again.

As the instructor I will draw along with students in  a second camera set up. Students are encouraged to either draw along with me or interpret the content in their own way.
