Students create an art piece incorporating tessellating shapes, translational symmetry, reflectional symmetry,and or rotational symmetry. They are asked if they know the definition of tessellation. If so, students are asked what shapes...

Students complete an Excel project on tessellations. In this technology and math lesson, students discuss tessellations and their occurrences in nature. Students use the Excel computer program to create tessellations.

Seventh graders investigate geometric shapes using tessellations. For this geometry lesson, 7th graders practice tessellations using different shapes. They create different designs using tessellations.

Students analyze Mosaic art and identify the tessellation process. In this Mosaic art instructional activity, students read information about Mosaic art and the tessellation process. Students compare mosaics from various civilizations...

Students identify symmetry in road signs. In this geometry lesson plan, students explore objects in the real world for symmetry. They perform translation, rotation and reflection.

Fifth graders reorganize comic strips to have them make sense, complete outline and organize their thoughts into outline form to explain directions, and use that outline to complete their own directions for geometry activities.
