Make more tiles by joining two or more shapes. Trace them in your notebook to create paths with no gaps or overlaps.
When joining shapes to make tiles, ensure the edges align properly. When tracing tiles to create paths, place each tile next to the previous one with no gaps and no overlaps. The tiles should fit together perfectly like a puzzle to create a continuous pattern.
Explanation
The chapter emphasizes that tiles must fit together without gaps or overlaps. Students should create new tiles by combining shapes and then trace them repeatedly to create paths or floor patterns. This activity connects geometry to real-world applications.
Solution Steps
Ensure edges align properly when joining shapes to make tiles.
Place each tile next to the previous one without gaps or overlaps when tracing.
Tiles should fit together like a puzzle to create a continuous pattern.
