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.

Please "like" this file if you collect or download it.

The sample files provided here are examples 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 are other examples I created: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1470332

It also creates a nice piece of math art.


kendel3d created an awesome puzzle frame for this: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2125154

Post-Printing

If you want a better fit on this print, sand or file the edges of the fist layer after the print is done (that first layer tends to squish out a bit).

How I Designed This

Design Process

I started out by creating a cool design in a program called Tesselmaniac. The tessellating shape was exported as SVG file from Tesselmaniac and brought into a 3D modelling application and extruded. This same process could be used by students to engage in a compelling activity of exploring and recognizing patterns in the world around them.rnrnNote: I have contacted the author of Tesselmaniac and the program now has a features to export the outline of the tessellation shape in SVG format which is a 3D Model friendly format.
