Classic Tangoes

Fantastic in the classroom to develop spatial awareness. Comes in a convenient box and lots of puzzle choices.

My grandchildren loved it

I ordered these as a hands-on activity for the kids I tutor. I've used these successfully with a 7th grader, a 6th grader, and a 3rd grader. They are fun and challenging for all ages! My third grade pupil likes to make up stories about the pictures as she works on the puzzles. I like the fact that there are two sets of shapes so that I can work on the puzzle at the same time as my student. The pieces are sturdy and nice to touch. The whole package is slim enough to fit easily in my messenger bag; it's about the same size as a scientific calculator. Working on Tangoes makes a great break from traditional math lessons and teaches the very important skill of being able to break a big geometric shape up into smaller shapes. This skill is crucial for tasks like finding the area of an irregular shape.

Fun!
