Students colour and cut out 4 shapes and fit them together to make tessellating patterns.

In this practical task, students arrange triangles and hexagons to create tessellating patterns.

Students continue tessellation patterns of a rectangular shape.

In this practical task, students arrange triangles and trapeziums to create a tessellating pattern within a rectangular box.

Students continue tessellating patterns.

In this practical task, students cut out regular polygons and decide whether that shape will tessellate.

Using grids, students show three different ways of tessellating four identical shapes.

Students sort different shapes into tessellating and not tessellating categories and explain their reasoning.

Students continue tessellating patterns which all use the same base shape.

Students draw shapes to continue tessellation patterns.

Students use given shapes to cover grids in tessellating patterns.
