Mirror Image Names - 6th Grade


I like to start off the year with this simple lesson on symmetry.  We discussed line, design, and symmetry.  Students created a linear design with symmetry using their own names, nicknames, pet names or team names.  They examined a variety of printed out fonts to help decide on the font they wanted to use.

Massachusetts Frameworks:  1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 2.8, 2.10, 2.11, 4.4
