PLACE VALUE ART
|
The art of Wassily Kandinsky “Several Circles” at right is the inspiration for this project. Place value is connected to object size in this project. If the ones place is represented by a small circle, it stands to reason that a circle representing the tens place must have ten times the area of the small circle and the 100’s place must be ten times the area of the 10’s circle. Students demonstrate their understanding of place value by representing numerical values with illustrations of those values using different sized geometric shapes.
