Math Posts: 31 Location: Henry Clay	I am looking for famous works of art that exemplify different types of transformations! I think that would really be fun for our students, and connect math and art together in a unique way!

Counts on fingers & toes Posts: 12	Love MCEscher. Like the idea of the toy but this year I am thinking about using shape blocks for general drawings before using grid paper for exact points. I am also thinking about working with our new art teacher at MLK for lesson tesselations to relate it as final project.
