Students learn about and make tessellations.  In this geometry lesson, students watch a video about wallpaper tessellations and use a handout to learn about tessellations. Students make an irregular tessellation.

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

Second graders practice new geometry vocabulary by putting the words to the tune of "Hokey Pokey." students use the lyrics as a guided reading experience.

Students listen to the teacher read a book and participate with guided questions. They discuss patterns and how they repeat, by looking at quilts. They design their own quilt block to create a class quilt.

Pupils brainstorm what they know about geometric terms and patterns. They identify symmetry, shapes and congruency. They create a book of symmetry.
