  • Last week we learnt about tessellation

  • This can be described as a pattern that is repeated to fit each other

  • We searched on the Internet to find an artist who used this in their work

  • I looked at an artist called Escher

  • In my opinion his work was fascinating , very complex and in detail

  • We then made 'Verity's kite'. We made this using origami skills

  • This required careful folding so that the angles were correct

  • Adding all the angles of the kite together = 360 degrees

  • If made correctly the kites fit together without any gaps to make a tessellation
