If you are currently teaching tangrams (or you will be in the near future), you must check out this differentiated lesson plan and learning agenda on the topic.
You will find these goodies at Think Magnet//Laughing and Learning Through Teachable Moments. Shelisa, a former teacher, gives great tips and ideas of how to make the teaching of tangrams fun and interesting. She writes: Tangrams feed your brain concepts like fractions, geometry, spatial reasoning, symmetry… all while employing problem solving, fine motor, and patience with a side of art. And, most kids and adults have fun with them.
