Tessellations!!! 4th Grade

Today in gifted we worked on tessalations. a tessaltion is a shape that is repeated over and over and over... with no gaps or overlapping. at first we had two sheeets of paper that had different shapes on it for us to choose from. then after we chose a shape we liked, we cut it out and traced it again and again and again.......... and then once we traced them, we cut them out and put them on a different sheet of paper. when we get done with our shapes, we can color them to make a diffent picture with them! seems hard huh? hard, but SUPER fun! TESSALATIONS ROCK!!

Hi! Tessalations were fun, but hard! I enjoyed working on these in class because they take a lot of hard thinking & I like being challenged. thank you, Mrs Zawis for intru ducing them to us!!
