Symmetry

What is a symmetry?
Where can you find symmetry?
How can you make symmetrical designs?
These were our wonder questions for this week in Math.Students looked for symmetry in class and around the school, they used pin boards and rubber bands to create symmetrical designs, drew own shapes at least with one symmetry line and created designs also with pattern blocks. Evan had a good idea to make a display of all the designs on the windowsill. He asked me for a piece of paper where he could write his name as the real artists have and others followed his initiative. Then we had a small exhibition in class where the art pieces changed every day.
