Infinity School: An Acton Academy

They’re busy making their plans for todayboth short and long-term goals. And they’re doing this in PJs! #PajamaDay

This week our Eagles have been painting on silk! Today they’ve been finishing up their beautiful creations. #ArtQuest #ProjectBasedLearning

For Math Power Hour this week, Ms Andrea & Ms Becky, who both enjoy textile art hobbies, led the Eagles through a cross-stitching activity. How is this math? Well, this session we are doing an Art Quest called Art Through The Ages so we though about how to pull that into math. Cross-stitching was an obvious choice for us given its prominence in history and use of patterns and spatial acuity.... The Eagles had to figure out how to make our round Infinity symbol become a cross-stitching (squares) product. They used graph paper to make their designs before starting the stitches! It was incredible to see them smiling, chatting away, and with some music as they helped each other through the hurdles of this fun activity.

Getting ready for... MATH! #MathIsArt #ArtIsMath

It was clay-making day today! #ArtQuest
