Geometric Designs

We have been learning about symmetry and have used what we have learnt this week to design wrapping paper. We learnt how to translate (slide) and reflect (flip) groups of shapes. Many of our designs have elements of symmetry within them. Can you spot any designs which are symmetrical?

    I like the pink one. It had faces and they were yellow. They had a mouth and a nose and a mouth and there were nine faces, and I like them.

    We did the wrapping paper in class too. They look fabulous. What materials did you use? You guys are real artists because we made messy wrapping paper!
    Did you turn the wrapping paper and slide and flip the wrapping paper?

    It reminded me when I was in B5 I learned the sliding and flipping.
    I think the blue faces look fun. The purple stars look charming. It must have taken a long time.

    Those designs are magnificent. The diamond is spectacular because of its pattern. Your art is amazing.

    Your wrapping paper looks excellent. How do you do it? Did you know we learnt about it? Don't you think it is fun to learn about?
    I like the blue and the purple one. I like them all.

    In maths we learned about flips and slides. Your designs are fabulous because I like the colours. It reminds me that every wrapping paper has one pattern.
    How did you make the designs?
    I like the smiley face design because I like the background.

    I like your art work because I like to slide and flip things. Do you know what we are learning? If you don't know what we are learning, visit our blog. Our blog tells you what we are learning.
    We did sliding and flipping once. I like the stars design and the dog design.

    We think that the designs are amazing, because they have been slid. I like the suns, circles and stars. I like how they have been slid, flipped and turned.
    B4 has done it before. It was fun.
    How did you make those amazing designs?

    best wishes

    Those designs are magnificent. The diamond design is spectacular because of its pattern. Your art is amazing. I would draw Lego mini-fighters if I was making wrapping paper.

    That looks fun. They look beautiful.
    A long time ago we did geometric designs too. We did it with a Christmas tree. I don't have a favourite because I like them all.
    Did it take a long time?
