TANGRAMS AND LACROSSE FANS

Today we got to play around with some Tangrams.  What are Tangrams?  Well, they are these really cool geometric puzzles made up of a square cut into seven pieces: two large triangles, one medium triangle, two small triangles, a square, and a parallelogram.  These seven shapes can be arranged into a multitude of shapes depicting animals, people, and other bigger shapes.  It's quite a brain workout.

Be on the lookout in Friday folders for your very own set of Tangrams.  
Check out The TANGRAM Channel for some ideas.  
​Just be warned these are very challenging and can be frustrating.  We practiced asking our friends for help when we were feeling a little like pulling our hair out!
Look at some of the awesome team work happening below!
