Tessellations - Escher Envy

We are learning to design and create tessellations to explore transformations.

I used 'paint' to paint a tessellation as instructed in an activity called 'Escher Envy'.

I designed and created the above tessellating pattern.

This is the procedure

• I opened up the computer tool paint
• Then I created a parallelogram
• Next I created a pattern on the top the parallelogram and repeated it on the bottom
• Same as the sides
• I then erased the original parallelogram and that left me with my pattern
• I copied my pattern across the canvas of paint until I ended up with my first tessellation
