Ms. Bouchard and I were very excited to bring Hans Schepker to our school as this year's resident artist.
The students at IRS had an incredible experience with Hans. He led a lesson that connected math and art, teaching students about platonic solids (3D shapes where each face is the same regular polygon).
Once the students had an understanding of what they were creating, the students designed glass mosaics on the faces that will make up the platonic solids. This schoolwide community project will be constructed into beautiful mobile that will become a permanent fixture in our building. Some of the art pieces will also be displayed in the library.
