Key Stage Art and Design Tessellation 2 Lesson
Design your own tessellation tile lesson and powerpoint.
Pupils are inspired by the work of artist Escher.
Pupils will understand how a tessellation tile is created using a geometric shape like a square. Pupils will cut into the shapes and then reassemble them on opposing sides. Pupils can make varying tessellating tiles that may look like different animals like dogs, fox, fish, or bird in the style of Escher.
Or they may choose to keep their design abstract form.
Pupils will need a square card to create their tessellation tile.
Video links included.
SEN differentiation included
Step by step visual guide included
Final outcome examples shown on ppt.
Suitable for the Art and Design curriculum in Key Stage 2, year 3 and 4 in particular. Can be easily adapted for upper key stage by thinking about positive and negative spaces in final design to create optical illusions. To simplify - the lesson can be used by giving precut card tiles to students so they can create a tessellation and add their own repeating patterns to create animal faces.
