So many cool things happening recently at IHS! Mr. Marcy's art students began a new project. Fiber (textile) art uses man-made or synthetic fibers to recreate visual illustrations. Kids decided on an illustration they liked, and then used yarn on a porous background to re-imagine it.
8th graders learned how to solve literal equations for particular variables. Then, they solved equations to spell their names.
