Tangramath

by Dale G. Seymour, Bob Larsen (Drawings), William T. Stokes (Drawings)

This book was designed for use by a wide range of age and ability levels. IT may serve as a workbook by itself to be used by one student proceeding at his or her own rate in an individualized setting, or a teacher may with to extract certain sections of the book to duplicate for use with an entire class. If two books are purchased, a set of activity or task cards could be made - with the teacher or student pasting the pages to sturdier cardboard sheets and then laminating them for protection. The activities in this book are only some examples of the variety of ways in which tangram shapes can be used to reinforce mathematical concepts. Suggested open-ended activities are listed at the then of each of the three sections in the book. The sizes of the tangram pieces lend themselves well to use on the overhead projector.
