Today, our students in Ms. Knight’s class explored the mesmerizing world of M.C. Escher, the legendary tessellation artist! 🖼️🦎 After researching his work, they got hands-on and crafted their very own tessellations using index cards. From alligators to fish to bulls, the creativity and inventiveness were off the charts! 🎨✨ It was such a fun and engaging way to dive into art and math. Proud of these budding artists!!
