Learning Intention
What did you learn today?
We began a mosaic art project today. We looked at pictures online to gain inspiration for our work. Some students have abstract pieces, some made actual shapes or realistic looking pictures. 
How did you show what you learned?
We are creating a mosaic with at least 4 different colors. From this we will determine a fraction, decimal, percent and ratio. This will display our math knowledge.
What do you need to learn next?
We need to complete the art project and determine the math conversions.
