Budding young artists at work

During this week we have been focusing on creating sequential patterns as part of our algebra maths  strand. The Years 6, 7 and 8's have been focusing on the Italian artist Romero Britto and the Years
4-5 students have been learning about creating aboriginal art works.
Our first step was exploring designs and choosing the design we would like to do. We looked at similarities between the artworks. From there we could take away ideas from the artworks under the same theme. We drafted our designs in our maths books and then transferred them onto white paper or black paper. At the moment some of our students are at the painting stage. This is a very exciting process.
