Mathematical String Art!
Click here for Printer-friendly - Whole Page ViewThe 8th grade Algebra students began their first mathematics project of the year by designing and completing a String Art Project. They began by creating an 
original color-coded design while following a few required elements such as line and rotational symmetry and by having a required number of geometric elements. After completing their design, they gathered the needed tools and equipment to finish the stringing of the project. Items such as a piece of wood, colored string, nails, a hammer, and possibly paint or cloth were necessary in completing the project. The bulk of the time spent on the project was the actual placement and hammering of the nails and the stringing of the design. The students put a lot of time and effort into their project and they turned out fantastic! Great job 8th grade!
