Mathematics

Recently 8S1 completed a unit on Linear and Non-Linear relationships in Mathematics. 

To finish this topic, we had a Desmos art competition where students had to create an image or animation using the website www.desmos.com. 

Students were required to use their knowledge of linear and non-linear relationships to create lines and curves to draw an image. 

They had to use their programming and algorithmic thinking to create engaging images, with a variety of colour and shading. 

Here are the winners of this competition:

Amelia T	Neiva L	Caitlin C
Juliet O’B	Sophie T	Jerrard C
Jerry L	Xander L	Ashley T

The last three are animations and can be viewed via these links:
