Literacy in Action!

Art & Math recently collaborated when Mrs. Leroux's 3B Geometry Students partnered up with Mrs. Renno's 3B Pre-AP Art students to complete a vocabulary "scavenger hunt" using Google Slides. Each team paired an Art student and a Math student who worked together to identify their own class' terms on a series of photographs of local Windsor architecture that they then had to label. Students experienced first hand how language is sometimes common and sometimes changes with context. The Geometry students were able to review for their upcoming quiz by teaching another student their terms and making concrete connections to recognizable local landmarks and the Art students were able to prepare for their upcoming project by better understanding the relationship of math and art when it comes to structural design.
