Halloween Math Craft Activity | Ghost Tessellation Math & Art Project I The Spectre Tile | Ghosts
Design a unique Halloween tessellation using the Spectre tile!
This engaging collaborative math & art project uses one of the latest mathematics discoveries, the Spectre tile (discovered by David Smith, Joseph Samuel Myers, Craig S. Kaplan, and Chaim Goodman-Strauss)!
This amazing shape can tile the plane without needing reflected copies, and no tiling with unreflected copies has a repeating pattern.
Each student cuts out and colors their own ghost or multiple ones.
Everyone's pieces perfectly connect together to make a mural, door decoration, or bulletin board display.
Let your students express themselves using this hands-on Halloween Math & Art activity during the exploration of the Spectre Tile.
In this freebie, you will find 9 different versions of Spectre Tiles (8 with different ghost faces and a blank tile version where students can draw their own weird faces).
This resource includes:
- The printable version in PDF.
