Angles and Numbers!
The maker of this illustration used math in a creative way. That is great, because that's how we want our kids to think as well... out of the box....being creative and creating new ideas/solutions to problems. This illustration could be a starting point for students to use angles in a different way. I could combine this exercise with art, and have students create a piece of art with angles. It's neat when we can do cross-curricular projects, because that allows our students to see the value of all subjects, and realize how inter-twined they really are.
This is an excellent visual for students just learning about angles. It is creative and easy to remember. I like the idea of being able to combine math lessons with other lessons, and in this instance the math lesson blends nicely with art. Too often we hear students say they aren't good at math, or that they hate math, but if teachers can find ways, like this to combine math with something they're interested in we just might change their way of thinking and excite them about learning math!
