- In art, mathematics is not always visible, unless you are looking for it. But there is much symmetry, geometry, and measurement involved in creating beautiful art. As well, many artists take advantage of mathematical findings, such as the golden ratio to make their artwork realistic and beautiful.atasha Glydon. Art and Math may at first seem to be very differing things, but people who enjoy math tend to look for mathematics in art. They want to see the patterns and angles and lines of perspective. This is why artists like M.C. Escher appeal to mathematicians so much.

- Rotation. In this animated Math Shorts video from the Utah Education Network, learn about rotation, which describes how a geometric shape turns around a point, called the center of rotation. When a geometric shape rotates on a coordinate plane, it stays exactly the same distance from the center of rotation.

Using Math Manipulatives to Aid Learning For example, while students in fifth and sixth grades would no longer need to use manipulatives for addition and subtraction of whole numbers (this is understood at the abstract level now), they would need concrete models for the introduction of percent, ratio, division of fractions, geometric formulas, and integers.

Making Objects Move Students should have opportunities to use tools, along with scientific and mathematical ideas, to solve problems and figure out more about how the world works. In this lesson, students study the motion of objects in order to create a structure that can be used to move an object from one place to another. They are encouraged to observe and test their structures, revising them as needed. As part of this lesson, students will make many discoveries about how and why objects move.

- Budgeting is also where math is used. Anything that you count is math. If you go to the store and need five apples, then counting 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 apples is math. Math is used in cooking and baking to measure out ingredients as well. In art, math is applied is order to create symmetry. It may not seem like math, but if an artist is going for a specific size, shape, use a ruler, etc. they are using math.

Visual-Spatial Processing: What You Need to Know For example, when you practice dance moves you see in a video, you’re using visual-spatial processing skills. But to practice the moves you have to do things like remember what you saw, which is a different visual processing skill. Here are some ways kids use visual-spatial processing for everyday tasks.

gyrotonic The Gyrotonic method is a movement modality that is inspired by yoga. It links movement with breath, working to increase the natural flexibility of the spine, whilst simultaneously strengthening and stretching the musculature. What makes it different from yoga is that it is less linear and more 3 dimensional, with a greater emphasis on spiralling and twisting.

Many Ways to Create Patterns Divide the class into four groups of equal size. Give each group a large piece of paper and crayons or markers. Show a pattern--such as clap, snap, squat--and have one group represent it with letters. Review this representation, noting how the one you presented compares to the one generated by the group. Ask a second group of students to show the pattern using numbers. Review and discuss this way of representing the pattern. Remember to point out similarities and differences among the three representations.
