Paper Tangram Chinese Puzzle Pattern Color Book Printables for Children
Tangram puzzles are fun to create and solve and also help teach geometry and improve spatial ability and spatial-temporal reasoning skills in children of all ages.
These non-traditional geometric octagon-shaped tangrams use the properties of the octagon to determine the particular dissection of each "tan" piece while attempting to stick with the traditional 7 "tan" dissection rule.
Print these 8-sided octagon-shaped tangram puzzles on white or colored cardstock or regular paper. Use markers or crayons to color the tangram, if desired, then cut out the tans (pieces) with scissors.
Children will enjoy discovering how many different shapes and designs they can make by rotating and assembling the tangram puzzle pieces.
