CHALLENGES IN LEARNING TESELLATION:
This is basically to tile a flat surface or cover a plane using one or more geometric shapes, with no overlaps or gaps. Now its too abstract to visualise and understand without actually doing it. It’s very difficult for a child to visualise and understand why shapes like triangle and hexagon can tessellate while shapes like circle and oval cannot.
WHY TILE KIT?
Ability to perceive and visualize shapes in different forms is critical for developing spatial understanding. This enables students to compose and decompose shapes to make complex figures Children enjoy making pattern or tile flat surface using concrete pieces of tile kit. Children can make hundreds or floor designs or rangoli by joining various shapes together keeping in mind that no shape should overlap and all the vertices are the same. This is a fun way to develop spatial understanding. This is so interesting that it keeps children constructively engaged for hours.
