7. OUR AIDS – THE BOOK
“TREE PIGS, ONE WOLF and SEVEN MAGIC SHAPES”
For the first introduction to tangrams
for younger kids is the book Three pigs,
one wolf, seven magic shapes by Grace
Maccarone. This book was a real
bargain, but it's out of print. It includes
story (based on the folk tale of the
three little pigs), a teaching guide, a set
of tangrams to cut out, and some
activities created by a math teacher.
Although the publisher recommended
this book for kids in grades 1-2, the
book can be enjoyed by schoolers.
