Symmetry can be viewed when you flip, turn or slide an object. The figures below show some patterns that are formed by symmetrical figures. The translated shapes remain exactly the same as the original, so the shapes are symmetrical to each other. These geometrical patterns with no gaps and no overlaps are known as tessellations. They can be found in many real-life objects.

Heart Tessellation Pattern

A super simple tessellation for young students: translation tessellation! Kids are given a square. They cut a piece off of the left and tape or glue it on to the right. Next, they cut a piece off of the top and add it to the bottom (see image below). Then, they use their imagination and create a creature out of their irregular polygon. Once their creature is made they trace it, learning about the transformation: translation (slide)! Their pattern piece should fit perfectly (interlocking)…

Start with a square. Cut the top and add to the right (90 degrees). Cut the bottom and add to the left (90 degrees). Trace your design on paper and rotate! Click here to see how to create a translation tessellation

In this math lesson, learners explore tessellations through literature, music, writing, and art activities. First, learners take a walk to identify and photograph real-life examples of tessellations in nature and in their community. Using the photographs, learners write a class big book,

Write a program to create this pattern using a function starTile(int x, int y) and a nested for loop. Each star tile and neighboring diamond can be random colors.
