My 3rd-grade gifted learners have been exploring the mind-bending world of Dutch artist M.C. Escher! We began our journey by looking at how Escher turned geometric shapes into interlocking, artistic wonders—tessellations. A tessellation is a pattern of shapes that fit together perfectly with no gaps and no overlaps. If your student comes home using some BIG math words that are unfamiliar to you...ask them to be the teacher and explain what they know. It is amazing what they can soak in!
