Chinese Tangrams

 

tangrams%202During Problem Solving this week we worked in pairs to solve tangram puzzles. Chinese tangrams have been used in China since ancient times.

They usually consist of 7 flat shapes called tans but our first challenge was to solve a 5-piece tangram. All tans have to be touching and they can’t overlap!

We had to create a candlestick, candle and a boat. Afterwards to challenge us even further we made Chinese inspired objects using a 7-piece tangram puzzle.

We made the boat – yay!
