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 ![]() ![]() |
