    Tessellation Escher and more (IT)
     

    Sorry this work is  written in Italian. The students, worked in paint. They   used    polygons to fill in  space, then through  transformations and the tool inverting colors they created artworks and nice optical illusions.

    Task:

    Create tessellations using polygons and transformations. Use your ideas keeping in mind that you can create optical illusions through polygons, transformations lines and colours.

    I added 2 video- explanations made by Mihai and Alexa  9 grade (RO)

  • Material (on the internet) and more to add ...

    tesselation tutorial

    No video, but a lot of nice examplers how to do it.

    Question: tesselation online?

    long time there had been a wonderful software called Tesselmania!. You could add points and the transoformed partner point was added automatically.
    Does someone know a software or an online tool that does regular tesselation easily?

    Tesselation

    I use paint too because it is a simple software graphics program, using the right button of the mouse you immediately have different immediate tools for inexperienced students. (Norma Lisa Neimann, IT)

    Nice work from all of you!

    Unfortunately I have my students only 80 min. a work in an afternonn club! So they cannot do all projects. (Monika, GER)

    This is a nice tool for younger students.
    We've been working on this tool.
