Objective: Learn to recognize symmetries of frieze patterns.
Materials
- Two copies of File:Blocky.pdf, one printed on paper and one on a transparency.
- Scissors
Procedure
- Cut the transparency into eight strips as indicated.
- For each strip pattern on the paper, use the corresponding transparency strip as an overlay to test for symmetries. On the paper, mark all symmetries for each pattern.
- What is going on with pattern #8?
Handin: The paper of strip patterns, marked with symmetries.
