How to Play Tangram

Tangram is an ancient Chinese puzzle consisting of seven pieces that are

five triangles, one square and one parallelogram. The basic rules of

playing tangram are the seven pieces of tangram must be used, theymust lay flat and touch without overlapping.

Use the tangram patterns on this page or page 24 to print a tangram or

tangrams on a thick paper, such as a photo paper. These patterns have

the same size as the tangram activities used in this workbook, page 1

through 20. The tangram activity on the left page is designed foryounger children. In this activity, they will learn to recognize and match

the tangram shapes. The next step on the right page is the activity to

form an animal shape, given only the silhouette. For older children or

adults can use page 21 for the silhouettes and page 22 for the solutions.

Large tangram patterns can be found on page 23.
