Instructional Ideas
- Divide the class into groups and assign each with an architectural image; instruct the group to list relevant geometric structures present
- View video segments of artwork containing geometric patterns discussed in class and provide time for a Q&A session
Classroom Considerations
- Make certain each person has the needed materials to construct models included in the lesson
- Lesson 14 in a 36-part unit
Pros
- Builds on knowledge of a previous lesson in the series and encourages the class to predict outcome of current models constructed
- Detailed examples allow differentiated learning or group learning if modifications are needed
Cons
- None
