  Elaborations

  • using digital tools to create tessellations of shapes, including paver and tiling patterns, describing the transformations used and discussing why these shapes tessellate; and identifying shapes or combinations of shapes that will or will not tessellate, answering questions such as ‘Do all triangles tessellate?’
  • designing a school or brand logo using the transformation of one or more shapes and describing the transformations used
  • using dynamic geometry software and digital tools to experiment with transformations, for example, to demonstrate when the order of transformations produces different results; and experimenting with transformations and their application to fractals
  • designing an algorithm as a set of instructions to transform a shape, including getting back to where you started from; for example, programming a robot to move around the plane using instructions for movements, such as 2 down, 3 to the right, and combinations of these to transform shapes
