1 Tessellations A tessellation is a repeating pattern of polygons that covers a plane with no gaps or overlaps. What transformations do you see? Typically the shapes making up a tessellation are polygons or similar regular shapes.

2 Tessellations can be formed from more than one shape. Tessellations can be formed from irregular shapes, too.

3 Tessellation Project 2016 Real Life Tessellations M.C. Escher Maurits Cornelis Escher ( ), a Dutch artist, created unique works of art that explore and exhibit many mathematical ideas. He used translations, reflections, rotations, and glide reflections in many of his works.

4 Tessellation Project 2016

5 PROJECT: PART 1 Honors: You will construct one tessellation template for all four of the following shapes. CP: You will construct one tessellation template for three of the following shapes. 1. square 2. equilateral triangle 3. hexagon 4. rectangle PART 1 is due Friday, February 19, It will count as one quiz grade. PROJECT: PART 2 You will cover an 11 by 17 piece of paper with tessellations. You can use one of the templates that you turned in from Part 1 or a new one that you create. PART 2 is due Friday, February 26, It will count as one test grade.

6 RUBRIC Template (on cardstock) turned in with project Template approved by teacher (by Tuesday, 02/24/15) In class participation (February 18 20) Neatness Complexity Accuracy Colorful TOTAL 10 points 10 points 15 points 20 points 10 points 20 points 15 points 100 points DEDUCTIONS will occur for 1) white areas and 2) lateness (10 points/day). BONUS points will be awarded for 1) difficulty, 2) special creativity and 3) tessellating a 14 by 22 posterboard. So how do we start making tessellations? Translation Tessellation (EASY) a square. 2. Draw a on one side of the square. 3. Cut the out & translate it across to the opposite side of the square. Secure with tape...no OVERLAPPING!

7 Translation Tessellation (HARD) a square. 2. Draw a on one side of the square, translate it to the other side, and secure. 3. Draw another on the adjacent side of the square, translate it to the opposite side, and secure. Glide Reflection Tessellation a square. 2. Draw a on one side of the square. 3. Cut the piece out and translate it across to the opposite side of the square. Reflect (flip) the cut piece. 4. Secure the piece with tape to the opposite side of the square. **This pattern needs to be reflected as it is traced.

8 Rotation Tessellation a square. 2. Draw a on one side of the square. 3. Cut the piece out and rotate (turn) it on an end point until it lies evenly with the adjacent side of the square. 4. Secure the piece with tape to the adjacent side of the square. **This pattern needs to be rotated as it is traced. Translation Tessellation with Rectangles a rectangle. Draw a and cut it out. 2. Translate it to the opposite side and secure. 3. Draw a second and cut. Translate to the opposite side and secure. 4. Add colors and s.

9 Rotation Tessellation with Triangles a triangle. Draw a and cut it out. 2. Rotate it to another side and secure. 3. This pattern needs to be rotated as it is traced. 4. Add colors and s. Translation Tessellation with Hexagons a hexagon. Draw a and cut it out. Translate it to the opposite side and secure. 2. Repeat 3. Repeat Step #1 Step #1 from another from side (optional). another side. (optional) 4. Add colors and s.

10 Rotation Tessellation with Hexagons a hexagon. Draw a and cut it out. 2. Rotate it to another side and secure. 3. Repeat Steps 1 & 2 as desired. 4. This pattern needs to be rotated as it is traced.
