What educators are saying

great for engaging end of year activities!!!! The students appreciated having some fun work to get them through the end of grading.
I used this as a warmup before students did their own large scale op-art project. They had to pick a few to try first before moving on to creating their own. There were a lot of choices and the steps were easy to understand. This would also work well as an emergency lesson or sub plan.
