A tessellation is a pattern consisting of identical shapes that nest together. This is very much like a tile floor, or various patterns on clothing. With this assignment, students were to use various math techniques to come up with a usable shape that can easily tessellate into a larger pattern. From there, students were to create a design on that shape, and then trace and cut out 12 identical shapes. After that, another piece of contrasting paper is used to build the pattern on, leaving each student with 24 shapes that nest together, creating their own unique tessellation!
