| tangram activity sheets: Tangrams Pack Randy Crawford, 1999-08-01 The tangram, known to the Chinese as the Seven Clever Pieces, is a moving puzzle piece, where designs and figures are made using seven geometric shapes known as tans. The tans are traditionally cut from a square and there are two small, one medium, and two large triangles, one parallelogram, and one square. The most popular way of playing with tangrams is to recreate a shape seen only in silhouette. The rules are simple - match your imagination against the inventiveness of centuries of experts to recreate the pictures in the book - or make up your designs. Solving a difficult puzzle by having the seven tans slide together to create a lively or evocative shape creates a sense of mystery and wonder. Inside this pack are two complete tangrams in contrasting colors and a book that details the history and background of this fascinating art. There are 500 different tangram designs, including 50 original dazzling and complex doubleset designs to tease and tantalize. Full solutions are provided for each puzzle and there are also intructions for competitive play, so two people can duel in an artistic challenge. |

| tangram activity sheets: Mindset Mathematics: Visualizing and Investigating Big Ideas, Grade 1 Jo Boaler, Jen Munson, Cathy Williams, 2021-03-02 Engage students in mathematics using growth mindset techniques The most challenging parts of teaching mathematics are engaging students and helping them understand the connections between mathematics concepts. In this volume, you'll find a collection of low floor, high ceiling tasks that will help you do just that, by looking at the big ideas at the first-grade level through visualization, play, and investigation. During their work with tens of thousands of teachers, authors Jo Boaler, Jen Munson, and Cathy Williams heard the same message—that they want to incorporate more brain science into their math instruction, but they need guidance in the techniques that work best to get across the concepts they needed to teach. So the authors designed Mindset Mathematics around the principle of active student engagement, with tasks that reflect the latest brain science on learning. Open, creative, and visual math tasks have been shown to improve student test scores, and more importantly change their relationship with mathematics and start believing in their own potential. The tasks in Mindset Mathematics reflect the lessons from brain science that: There is no such thing as a math person - anyone can learn mathematics to high levels. Mistakes, struggle and challenge are the most important times for brain growth. Speed is unimportant in mathematics. Mathematics is a visual and beautiful subject, and our brains want to think visually about mathematics. With engaging questions, open-ended tasks, and four-color visuals that will help kids get excited about mathematics, Mindset Mathematics is organized around nine big ideas which emphasize the connections within the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and can be used with any current curriculum. |
