4th Graders Use Line to Create Op Art Cubes

I saw these Op Art cubes online this summer and fell in love with the idea of my students being able to show more than one illusion! Here's what I discovered...

Pros: they learned 6 different illusions, space is small so project went fast, use of markers was manageable, students were able to cut and glue the cube together independently.

Cons: I had to teach 6 different illusions, doesn't lend self to independent work

Soooo, next year, I will probably teach 3 different illusions as students do those 3 on the cube, then the other 3 squares the students have to repeat those 3 same illusions again independently.

What do you think? Any other ideas?
