7th grade artists are making creative tessellations. We started by learning that tessellations are made from shapes, have no overlaps or gaps, have the same vertices, and can repeat forever. Students practice with dot paper and simple shapes to make tessellations. After that, we learned how to use paper to change squares into translation and rotation tessellations. Here are some examples. Students were able to be creative in envisioning a new thing in their tessellation shape. Here are some works in progress and finished works.

7th grade students have been learning about the influence on pop culture on their lives. We looked at the artist, Romero Britto, and his pop artwork style inspired by Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. Students created their own pop art prints inspired by Britto's use of a simple image, pattern, and broken shapes. Here are some student edition and unique prints. |
