About this model
This education project involves students creating tessellation patterns and printing those out as puzzle pieces. Developing math thinking involves looking for patterns. This activity is designed to encourage students to see patterns in the world around them. 3D printing is useful here because students understand concepts by manipulating physical objects through kinesthetic learning. The sample files provided here is an example of the kind of puzzles students could create. These puzzles could be shared with other students to further reinforce the concepts of tessellating patterns. Here is another example I created: It also creates a nice piece of math art. __________ kendel3d created an awesome puzzle frame for this:
