The children loved working with tangrams in math class today. They are able to make shapes out of the tangram pieces. They have a paper tangram square in their take-home folders in case you want to do some activities with the shapes. This You Tube link will explain tangrams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVUy058_JNE
