Geometry: Tessellations

Combine geometry and tradition with a lesson that spotlights Navajo weaving. The book, The Goat in the Rug by Charles L. Blood and Martin Link hooks scholars before watching a video of Navajo people tending their sheep and beginning...

Six questions make up a mixed practice worksheet. Scholars use their knowledge of addition, subtraction, multiplication, money, perimeter, ounces, and pounds to solve word problems with numbers up to 66,000.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan introduces a variety of motion geometry concepts such as translations, reflections, and rotations. Lots of interactive support for students.

This lesson plan deals with tessellations and their geometric concepts. Upper elementary and middle school students will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and culture.

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan examines the mathematical nature of art, tilings and tessellations. Learners will also explore polygons, symmetry, analyze patterns and explore the role of mathematics in nature and our...

This upper elementary and middle school lesson plan explores tessellations and their geometric properties. Plenty of interactive support is available for students. Lots of resources for teachers to use.

Students investigate the geometrical concepts of translation, reflection, and rotation. They make different observations looking for the concepts that are displayed in classroom items like floor tiles, carpet designs, and visuals hung in...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students watch a video to determine unit shapes from a tessellation and then take an assessment to test their knowledge.

Increase students' skills and knowledge of rotation and transformation at this test prep site. Includes lessons pages, practice questions with interactive answers, and a teacher resource page.

The challenge at this one page website, involves tessellation and triangle. Should you accept this challenge, you will find helpful teacher notes and the solution available right at the website.
