\modpart{Enumerate the polyminoes}{25 mins}

The teacher explains the concept of polyominoes with a beamer. Then, working in groups of 4 or 5, students have to enumerate all the triominoes, tetrominoes and pentominoes.


\modpart{Speed contest : find out the orders}{25 mins}

Still working in groups, students have to find the order of all the triominoes, tetrominoes and pentominoes. The first team to complete the task (or the most advanced at the end of the hour) gets an A*, the second an A and the third a B. A one minute malus is given each time someone in the group speaks French.

\modpart{Buffer : the hexominoes}{Remaining time}

Enumerate the hexominoes and find their orders.

In recreational mathematics, a \emph{polyomino} is a polyform
with the square as its base form. It is a connected shape formed as
the union of one or more identical squares in distinct locations on
the plane, such that every square can be connected to every other
square through a sequence of shared edges (i.e., shapes connected
only through shared corners of squares are not permitted).

\bigskip

\defi{Small polyominoes}{A \emph{monomino} is made of just one square, \emph{domino}
is made of two, a \emph{triomino} of three and so on for
\emph{tetrominoes}, \emph{pentominoes}, \emph{hexominoes}, etc.}

In this sequence, we will work on \emph{free} polyominoes, that are
considered different from each other as long as none is a
translation, rotation, or reflection of another.

\bigskip

\prop{Numbers of small polyominoes}{There are one free monomino, one free domino, two free triominoes, five free
tetrominoes and twelve pentominoes.}

\defi{Order of a polyomino}{The \emph{order} of a polyomino is the number of copies of itself
you need to build a rectangle.}

\prop{Some orders}{The monomino, the domino, the triominoes and most of the tetrominoes and pentominoes have order 1 or
2, except the T tetromino which has order 4 and the Y pentomino which has order 10.}
