Transformation and Tessellations

For the next three weeks leading up to vacation, we will work with Transformations and Tessellations.  Transformations are ways of changing a figure by moving, reflecting, rotating, and dilating it. Tessellations are figures that "tile."  They fit together because of the transformations used to create them.
