LINKS ABOUT SYMMETRY
AND TESSELLATION
A really good place to go for our
class is the Geometry Center, which
has a lot of neat information on many aspects of symmetry and tessellation.
A contrast to this big center's
web page is provided by Symmetry
and the Shape of Space, which gives a more personal touch. (Nice peach
background too!)
Totally
Tessellated is all about tessellations. Everything you ever wanted
to know.
Pedagogical strategies are located
at a fun and cheerful website; these lesson
plans
are the ones we wish we'd
had in elementary school.
and remember all those toys you
played with when you were little that you now see symmetry and tessellation
in? Like the Spirograph?
Rudy Rucker
has apparently made one too.
Want more material? The web is full
of tessellation
and symmetry
information!
