Optical Illusions - Summer of STEAM: Class 1 of 6

🌞SUMMER OF S.T.E.A.M. CLASS🌞: OPTICAL ILLUSIONS - June 8, 2022
This was the 1st class this Summer. Kids ages 7-13 and we have 3 time zones signed up for this class: West Coast, USA (not pictured), East Coast, USA & Wales, UK.

We learned about MC Escher (my fave artist) and Bridget Riley who both do very different types of illusions in their artwork.

We learned the science behind Optical Illusions and why we get tricked...and we did not 1, not 2, but 3 AWESOME Optical Illusions of our own (the Swirl we started and were to complete after class)!!! I think everyone did an awesome job!!!

After class, some extensions included building the Impossible Triangle or Stairs out of LEGO!!! Riley did an AWESOME job!!! Thanks for sharing!!!

Some parents want to learn with their kids, like Seth, Laura & Grandma Jill! How special is that!!!

Thanks to Seth, Pyper, Riley, Rosalie, Jamin & their Moms (& Grandmas) for their support! See ya’ll (& a few others) in 2 weeks (June 22nd) for 5 Science Tricks to Impress!!!
