I can use this in math and ask the students all the shapes they can find.

what a great photo to use to explain math terms! there is just so much info in the Flickr Creative Commons databases, isn't there?
I love this mandala. Not only can they look for shapes but they can discuss radial symmetry as well. Also, how many parts is this mandala divided into? This would be fractions - each section would be 1/10th, 1/20th...depending on how many sections there are.
So how many shapes can you find in it?
