Year 8
Lesson 3 Icon challenges
Students are presented with a set of monochrome icons and are challenged to create some of them from scratch, starting from elementary shapes and combining them with path operations. The icons are carefully selected to range from simple ones that are straightforward to produce to more complex ones that require some creative thinking. At this stage, students have to actively think about the process they will follow in order to produce each of the designs. They know the ingredients they can use (the elementary shapes) and how to combine them (the operations) but they need to work out the steps that will lead them from start to finish. In many cases there will be alternative paths to the same goal.
