Tesselation

By Joe Reid

We did tessellation. I like  it, you are not  allowed to overlap,  its tricky because you have to draw a line up the paper then cut the line and sellotape  it back together.

Next you add  another zigzag line and cut it too and  sellotape  it again. You have to draw around it on paper and  fill the entire page.

It’s tricky to begin with and  then it gets easier.  You  can not leave any white on the paper.  You can do it with any kind of paper.

Its very fun

 

In our co-operative groups we made a tessellation instruction poster and gave it to P6/7 to see if they could follow them. They gave us feedback about our posters and gave us scores on Attractiveness, what you need and method. We think they enjoyed making tessellations.
