Geometry Tessellations Project for Transformations Unit
This tessellations project is a fun way to utilize transformations in Geometry or Art. Students start by creating a fundamental region from either an equilateral triangle, square or hexagon. They cut a unique shape and then translate, rotate or reflect it to another side of the region, thereby creating a piece that can lock together and tessellate across a page. Students interpret their fundamental region and bring the design to life with additional color and drawing. Younger students can en

Math Art M.C. Escher Tessellations PowerPoints Thematic Unit Distance Learning
Famed Dutch artist, M.C. Escher (1898 - 1972) though a sickly child became a self-taught "MathArt" genius. Escher created works beyond the human imagination inspired from adventures such as a visit to the Moors' castle of the Alhambra in Spain and a Mediterranean voyage among other European travels. Undaunted by his lack of mathematical training, he found more in common with mathematicians of his day, such as English professor of mathematics, Sir Roger Penrose, than he did with fellow artists. H

Snowflake Predictions - Critical Thinking & Rotational Symmetry
This fun task lets students explore the math in nature by having them look at the rotational or radial symmetry in snowflakes. Too often students struggle with the proper folding needed to emulate the correct six-fold rotational symmetry that snowflakes naturally have. This product includes a template for students to cut and fold so that they can create proper snowflakes and truly explore the radial symmetry in nature. Also included is a half-sheet where students will sketch out their cut but st
