Quiz – When finished complete: 1. m< 1 + m<2 = 180. Which lines are parallel and why? 2. If a ll c, b ⊥ a, a. what is m<8? b. what is m<2? Bonus: Find m<1.
Tessellation Project Today we will discuss the requirements and expectations for your Tessellation projects and you will receive a brief introduction to the different types of tessellations. This is an individual project.
Tessellation Project • Maurits Cornelis Escher (1898 – 1972) was a Dutch artist famous for his repetitive, interlocking pattern. His works look like paintings but were done by woodcarving and lithographs. • Escher’s designs are made from variations on tiling patterns called tessellations. A floor covered by square tiles is an example of a tessellation of squares.
Tessellations & Transformations Tessellations can be modified by using transformations. As you know, transformations are movements of geometric figures. One transformation, commonly used to create tessellations is a slide, or translation, of a figure.
Translation Tessellations For simple translation tessellations, polygons should have opposite sides that are parallel and congruent – squares, hexagons, parallelograms.
Example: Translation Tessellation You can create more complex designs starting with square tessellations and making changes on both pairs of sides.
Depending how you decide to color your tessellation, a very simple design can have a very creative result.
Glide Reflection Tessellation For glide reflection tessellations, polygons should have opposite sides that are parallel and congruent – squares, hexagons, parallelograms.
Example By reflecting and gliding over more than one side, you can create a more complex tessellation.
Tessellation created by Rotation Adjacent sides must be congruent – squares, equilateral triangles, regular hexagons, rhombi
Midpoint Rotations • Triangles, Squares, and Quadrilaterals Note: More than one side may be altered for more challenging designs. Coloring one side of the pattern will help prevent accidental flipping during tracing.
Suggestions • READ THE Project Sheet first before trying your tessellation. There is a lot of good information in the packet that will help you in deciding on which type of tessellation to do and in creating your tessellation. • Research M.C. Escher • A template that is approximately 2 inches by 2 inches will work well to create an 8 ½ by 11 inch tessellation.
Suggestions • Try out several designs, by cutting and taping paper together until you find something you like. • When you have decided on a design, create your template on a stiff material – heavy cardstock or a file folder seem to work well for creating a sturdy template that can be traced over and over. • Be creative. Your design should not look like any of the designs in the packet or in this presentation. • Remember: Finding a design online and copying it is plagiarism.
Tessellation Project • Your project is due on Thursday, October 18 at the beginning of class. Grading criteria is in your packet. • On the due date, you must turn in your completed tessellation, your template (attached to the back of your tessellation), your summary paragraph (for each Design), and your assigned packet. • Do NOT wait until the last minute!!!!!
