Description

This resource, from Hop's Delta Blocks, provides an overview of delta blocks, which were inspired by M.C. Escher's print "Flatworms," and which can be used to explore 3-D tessellations and related geometric concepts. The site also has some interesting links that lead to tessellations and solid geometry constructions. Use this link to access the Delta Blocks Web site through the Illuminations resource review for grades 9-12.
