Resource Title:Build a shape with tangrams
Description:Using this applet, the student can observe spatial relationships found by placing polygons in different arrangements. The goal when working with this applet is to replicate examples of different shapes formed using the seven pieces found in a traditional tangram. A tangram is a set of seven pieces which include five right triangles, a square, and a parallelogram that all fit together to form a square and that can be arranged to form a variety of shapes.
