Points of Interest

Control of Error

Variations and Extensions

  • More complex patterns can be made with more shapes:
    Metal Insets patterns 1.jpg Metal Insets pattern 2.jpg
  • The child could use the basic shapes created by tracing the metal insets for creative drawing (e.g. ellipses or ovals could be faces).

Material

Paper for the insets should measure 14cm x 14cm (about 5 1/2 inches)
