SPIROLATERALS: MATH + ART

SPIROLATERALS CLASS:
I apologize!!! I am so behind uploading previous classes from December and January. So I thought I’d do the most recent to feel a little better! 😅

Btw, have you ever seen so many smiles? While doing Math? Yeah, right? It's true...
​Last Friday, we had an awesome class learning about Finding patterns in Math, and using these patterns to create art. Yes, Math isn’t just dry number crunching. Math gets the worst PR!!! If you REALLY want to learn Math and begin to have an open mind, then learn from someone who LOVES IT!!! Like me!!!

Math is problem solving, puzzles, patterns, shapes, sizes, standards, poetry, rhythm, music, art, data, graphs, a way to explain creation & natural phenomena in human terms, an international language (sadly a 'foreign' language to many😆) AND number crunching!.

Math is all around!!! And when you look for it, you’ll see it! This class was all about noticing patterns, especially within the Multiplication tables 1-9. We learned about Spirolaterals and the beautiful patterns that we can create with the times tables. 

I polled this class to see who liked Math, and most of the kids DID NOT LIKE MATH 😝(sadly, no surprise there!). But after seeing math from a different, more creative angle, it helped encourage many kids to keep an open mind & there is a FUN side of Math that can be explored! That was the greatest lesson, helping kids have FUN with Math!!!

Thanks to all kids your participation and sharing!!! Thanks to the parents as well!!!
PS- I feel like the father in “My Big Fat Greek Wedding” who said he can take any word and show that it is Greek. Tell ME anything you are interested in and I’ll show the you Math!!! I know you’re probably thinking, “Why would you kill my joy with something I love?” LOL! What IF instead of ruining your interests, we used your interests to see Math from a different perspective?😳🧐🥴🤪 Do you like money, sports, fast cars, architecture, food, fashion, art? Those are easy. Come on, challenge me!!!
