M.C. Escher was a master of creating artwork containing repeated patterns called tessellations.  In an attempt to copy Escher's style, the students of Room 34 came up with their own tessellation creations.  Students took a small, self-made pattern and traced it multiple times to create a tessellating image.  Their job was then to add detail and color to turn their eye-catching patterns into the beautiful works of art you see below.
