Geometry Concepts
Description
This image shows a tessellation pattern formed using basic shapes from pattern blocks. Pattern blocks typically include shapes such as equilateral triangles (green), squares (orange), rhombuses (blue), trapezoids (red), hexagons (yellow), and parallelograms (tan). These shapes fit together without gaps or overlaps to create a continuous pattern.
Pattern block tessellations are excellent for exploring geometric concepts such as symmetry, transformations, and spatial reasoning. They provide a hands-on way to understand how shapes can be combined to cover a plane completely.
Teacher's Script: "Observe this tessellation pattern. Can you identify the pattern block shapes used here? How do these shapes fit together to create a seamless pattern? What geometric concepts can we explore using these tessellations, such as symmetry or transformations?"
