Tessellation

Tessellation


This week we have been exploring tessellation. 

A Tessellation is when we cover a surface with a pattern of flat shapes so that there are no overlaps or gaps.

 
We made regular tessellations with regular polygons.


           

We then made semi-regular tessellations using 2 or more regular polygons.




         

We then used carpet tiles and 2D shapes to create our own tessellating patterns.
