Tangram Grid - Area & Fractions

This activity can be used as an extension of another freebie, but it can also be used as an independent lesson.

It contains a worksheet with a tangram puzzle on a grid. First students have to find the area of each puzzle piece by counting the number of squares. Then they have to find the fractional representation of the puzzle pieces. Also included is an answer key.

Please feel free to check out my YouTube-channel for an accompanying video:

Tangram Domino

Traditionally, students are given a silhouette or an outline to solve a tangram puzzle. However in this case the traditional tangram game is mixed with the ‘matching element’ of the dominoes game.

Students are given tangram pieces with 7 question and 7 answers. They must match each question with the corresponding answer. After all questions and answers are matched, a tangram duck is formed.

The questions and answers are editable. You can enter any question / answer you like. Simply open the file Microsoft PowerPoint and click on the text boxes. The text boxes are already placed in the right position and direction.

Included are:
- Instructions on how to edit the questions and answers.
- 1 Editable page with 3 strips of puzzle pieces for your students to cut out.
- 1 Editable page with a worksheet for your student to paste the pieces.
- 1 Page with the tangram solution.

You can buy the cut and paste worksheets here.
