Sixth graders in Mrs. Foley's math classes have been working on their chapter about ratios. Students completed ratio tables to develop ordered pairs to plot on two coordinate planes. In addition, they needed to create equivalent ratios to design two other grids. Their work is inspired by the artist, Sol LeWitt, whose art included various mathematical concepts.
