Abstract
This workshop will introduce participants to the art of lap loom weaving. Each participant will create a small project, inspired by the artistic work of Piet Mondrian. Geometric connections will be explored through the use of GeoGebra. We will also explore ways in which mathematics curriculum is complemented by creative artistic activities such as weaving. Workshop participants will have the hands-on opportunity to produce their own artifact which will be theirs to keep at the end of the workshop. There will be a discussion on how different activities, related to weaving and GeoGebra, could be implemented or extended to accommodate for students of various abilities and interests. All materials needed for the workshop will be provided.
