Christmas Tree Classroom Display – Tessellation Project

Your pupils will love colouring and decorating individual trees, which are then combined to form a larger Christmas tree display. 

What are Tessellations?

People use different names to refer to them – mosaic pictures, tilings, etc. The word tessellation comes from the Latin word ‘tessera,’ which refers to a small stone cube used in mosaic floors and patterns. A tessellation usually refers to a specific mathematical concept where a given pattern can be repeated repeatedly without crossing any of its boundaries or leaving gaps.
