TANGRAM:
Ancient Chinese moving piece puzzle, consisting of 7 pieces made using 3 basic geometric shapes. There are two large, one medium and two small triangles, one square and one parallelogram.
We have been learning about shapes (2D) and sorting them by attributes.
Well I found a great website, that lets you manipulate the pieces by FLIPPING or TURNING them right on your computer screen. Once you figure out how to do that, try to create different shapes using just two pieces of the tangrams.
Can you make a square, rectangle, parallelogram, rhombus, trapeziod?
Once you've done that, click on one of the puzzles at the bottom. Be prepared to be challenged, and stumped at times, but don't give up!
