On behalf of my mother, a junior high math teacher, I would like to say thanks! She has used your video in her classes to give an up-front, visual aid that she couldn't do herself. Good luck continuing in the field of education! And way to use technology to aid in the process.
I am a 6th grade math teacher and we were making tessellations this morning. I came across your video and projected it onto my Smart Board to inspire my class while they tessellated! Thank you for the inspiration!
Ty for making this video. For some reason I never got to do this project in school and was always a little jealous of the kids that did. I'm looking forward to finally getting to try it out.
Thank you so much for posting this!! I have a project due tomorrow on rotation tessellations in my intensive Geometry class, and I didn't pay attention when the teacher explained how to do these. You saved my butt.
Thank you so much! I am a 7th grade student and we are doing tessellations, and I didn't really get what my teacher said, and the way she explained it. But thanks to you I know what to do know! Thanks! ( btw I wish u were my teacher because you seem to know what your talking about and you explain it very well.) I hope you get a job!
Wow. You're a great teacher. I have to do this for my Geometry class, and it counts as two test grades, and I seriously need to do well. I couldn't seem to understand how to do any of it until I saw this video. Thanks so much!
I'm an art teacher in nebraska and do tessellations with my Art Foundations class every year. So far I've been starting with squares, but the video prompted me to try triangles this year. thanks, AH-MAZING!
YOU are awesome. A principal would be stupid not to hire you. What a great project,and you explained it so clearly. I'm going to try it in my art camp.THANKS!
Hey we actally did this as out geometery final in my class in spokane washington and it was woth 20% of our grade. Best 55 points i ever earned lol thanks alot.
This is GREAT!!! I'm a 6th grade teacher too! I am sooo excited to share this with my kids tomorrow. Very comprehensive and easy to follow! Thank you again! I would hire you:-)
Thank you so much for this! My kids loved watching the video (I teach Geometry in a high school in Texas). I'm having my kids do a more involved project but they loved your explanation. I just had to make sure and cough when you said here are some examples from my 6th graders. :)
I just want to give a big thanks to my geometry teacher for making us do this. I hope you know that any will I had left to live has officially left my body. Have a good day everyone. I hope this “activity” doesn’t suck out your soul like it did for me.
Love ESCHER and his tessellations work, the man was a genius. With obv patience of a saint. Our world is better for ESCHER. :-) ARTISFOREVERYONE!..your welcome.
Thank-you for this video! I am planning to do this tomorrow with my 6yr old...I wish you had been my teacher! I hated science and math in school because it was BORING! ie: it was taught BORINGLY! now I am obsessed with geometry and because the numbers make patterns I now think math is BEAUTIFUL! because it's the language of the universe!
I'm doing this with my gr.9 art teacher, it's fun! Although we are shading colours behind the tessellations and adding in the design that we see. :D it's a lot of fun!
Thanks man! I owe you one! I did a tesselation exercise along a similar line but not one so intricate that could fit into itself. I love the design element as well...which was missing from the previous one. :)
Thankyou for the tessellation project, I'm using it to make t-shirts! I'm glad I didn't have you as a math teacher. You're too dreamy. I wouldn't have learned anything.
Hey this is pretty cool! good job mate im doing this for my homework. Our year 6 has told us to watch this vid. you'll get more than 140 views in just a week!!
I need help, I'm trying to make a pentagon tesselation. Yes, I realize pentagons don't "tesselate" because of the gap. BUT, if you fold the three pentagons on the edges to make them touch, it will be 3D. So, I'm trying to make it 3D. But my art treacher said to start with the 5 triangles that fit inside of a pentagon. I was wondering if this method would work if I put 5 of the shapes together to make a "pentagon"
Dear Math Teacher who made the video, thank you and WOULD YOU PLEASE POST THE DIRECTIONS YOU HAVE WRITTEN ON THE BOARD SO THAT WE CAN GIVE THOSE TO OUR STUDENTS?
I guess to use other regular polygons as a base, you'd rotate the design based on the angle between the side. On second thought, don't answer that. I will try it ...
1. Find the midpoint of that last triangle side. 2. Make half of it funky from a corner to that midpoint. 3. Rotate the funky part 180° around the midpoint. 4. Take a coffee break.
Many thanks for the advices... I will try as with paper and pen... however for the action I may at least lunch with abundant and good food... muahahhaahhah... eeehm, excuse me. thanks

Our teacher repeatatively shows us this video before doing Escher Art... Been doing it for awhile now. Thumbs up so she can see!
I wish I had a teacher like you. I’m an Escher fan since I was 16 in 1973, just after he died. I had no idea how he made repeating designs.

Bro made the most coolest video in the universe
thanks a lot russ u helped me at my school homework and u made me pass a art test
What an awesome, creative, hip, Teacher !
My daughter, Sasha wants to teach at a Montessori Middle school. I'll share this with her. Thanks!

my god, to do this with kids is totally AWESOME! congratulations to your great job. beautiful! i am so glad i've watched this. thank you.
I think kids would love to have you as a math teacher. I might actually have liked math more in school if I had a teacher like you!
Soooo cool! I was looking for triangular tessellation and found it. Thank you, teach.
YOU are awesome. A principal would be stupid not to hire you. What a great project,and you explained it so clearly. I'm going to try it in my art camp.THANKS!
Hey we actally did this as out geometery final in my class in spokane washington and it was woth 20% of our grade. Best 55 points i ever earned lol thanks alot.
Nice vid, nice teacher, nice project
Oh man, this is so great!!! Now I just wish I had enough time to teach this to my fourth graders.
This is GREAT!!! I'm a 6th grade teacher too! I am sooo excited to share this with my kids tomorrow. Very comprehensive and easy to follow! Thank you again! I would hire you:-)
love the Air playing in the background - perfect :)
Our teacher repeatatively shows us this video before doing Escher Art... Been doing it for awhile now. THUMBS UP SO SHE CAN SEE
awesome! this totally helped me. i have to make this for my final test, and my tesellation came out great!

You just tessellated my brain. And I liked it.
Awesome.
Still an incredibly helpful tutorial
I just want to give a big thanks to my geometry teacher for making us do this. I hope you know that any will I had left to live has officially left my body. Have a good day everyone. I hope this “activity” doesn’t suck out your soul like it did for me.
Thanks, you really helped me how to explain to my students. Very useful video. Good luck!!

loooool mr kranz! i loved the tessilation project keep rockin !!!
Excellent tutorial. I shall keep this in mind to use with some of my classes.
thanks good video, I am student of design and I really needed this
I'm doing this with my gr.9 art teacher, it's fun! Although we are shading colours behind the tessellations and adding in the design that we see. :D it's a lot of fun!
That looks so cool. Thank you so much for sharing. I was trying to draw a lizard. I think now I know how to do it :)
Rock and roll bro! Nice job!
Nice video it is very resourceful for us students cause we are doing this for an assignment.
Thanks this helped me at school and all my classmates
lols nice vid. can you believe i do tesselations as homework? stuff is so much fun. my walls are plastered with them. I rated 5 starzzz..
That is a great idea for a crazy wallpaper actually
Very cool!! =D
Best explanation I have ever had on tessellations and I've had to do four which I just kind of acted like I knew what I was doing.....
thnks for the help..its my project....needed it !!!
hey this project was great we did it at skool...i didn't think it was soo easy to do
Thanks man you helped me finish my geometry project
thx u so much !!!!!
u just saved my Geometry . grade !!!
Thanks so much for this video!! I have to do this for extra credit and it helped a lot 👏👏👏
Your class made lovely tessellations :)
Thanks, you rock. Way better than my teacher explained it.
its amazing i just made it it looks so good thanks for the idea
Thanks man! I owe you one! I did a tesselation exercise along a similar line but not one so intricate that could fit into itself. I love the design element as well...which was missing from the previous one. :)
Awesome video
Thankyou for the tessellation project, I'm using it to make t-shirts! I'm glad I didn't have you as a math teacher. You're too dreamy. I wouldn't have learned anything.
This is awesome ! (:
and I'm totally using it for my project. Merci♥
kudos to you and your grade 6 class!
Thanks bro , my math project is saved!
You rock! Now that's how to make math fun :-D
Thanks for this. Now I know how to do my Geometry homework.
thanks so much dude. helped me a lot.
So intriguing! Thanks!
so creative!
This math teacher is super hott...WHERE THEY GeT THESE KINDA TEACHERS AT?!
thanks one funky devil! way to make learnin' fun!
Thank you - it is good to know how to do it. -- :) I will teach my kid to do --.
Hello! the truth I am not good for the English but your video is amazing understood everything! really thank you very much !
regards!
спасибо, идея отлично, показано понятно, но вместо рекламы прочитала бы субтитры. удачи, продолжайте!
That was perff, got my geometry 3rd quarter project out of the way.
I want him as my math teacher.
Very cool! Thanks.
super idée, bien expliqué, il faut que j'essaie !!! merci !
Hey this is pretty cool! good job mate im doing this for my homework. Our year 6 has told us to watch this vid. you'll get more than 140 views in just a week!!
thanks so much for this video. I'm from Britain, I'm in year 8 (grade 8) and next year I'm starting my exams, one of them including art
You have to study the subject of tessellation. There are numerous "base" shapes, including regular hexagons.
very cool what you do !! ;)
great choice using la femme d'argent
Guys, it is very important that you take a coffee break. Not doing so will result in complete failure
shut the fuck up
Thanks for the help I got a A on my project on school Bc of this

The 5:44 non cancelling ad (Dragon's Gold) In front of this video is unfortunate.
Huwow SO AMAZING!!!
Great soundtrack!!! =)
I guess to use other regular polygons as a base, you'd rotate the design based on the angle between the side.
On second thought, don't answer that. I will try it ...
the lines from 2:36 to 2:43 are not clear how they could be done to have a perfect match for the final form to repeat with joints
1. Find the midpoint of that last triangle side.
2. Make half of it funky from a corner to that midpoint.
3. Rotate the funky part 180° around the midpoint.
4. Take a coffee break.
Many thanks for the advices... I will try as with paper and pen... however for the action I may at least lunch with abundant and good food... muahahhaahhah... eeehm, excuse me. thanks
I am wondering how Escher was able to made two opposite figures in perfect match each other
Btw what can I use if I don't have a protractor??? I've tried using protractor apps on my phone but the angle keeps moving when I try to trace it.
thanks helped a ton!!
You remind me of you geometry teacher you guys would get along so well lol
Thank you very much..:))) those are very beautiful...you so smart..:))
hey, what's the song that plays while we see the kids' projects? :)
Like the instrumental surfer music.
@TheMayankiller The skunk looking thing with black and red was mine.
But what if we want a specific shape, not just a triangle with almost the same perimeters?
I wish I watched this when we had a project on tessalation:<
This really helped!!!
Oh hi Rebecca
Çeliktepe Cengizhan Lisesi says Hello to you!!! Like, thumbs up!!!
