This looks like an excellent resource to use as a way to develop students' understanding of fractions. I am going to use this with grade 5 for them to estimate the fractional proportion of each shape, then create a tangram picture. From this students estimate the proportion of the tangram used for the head, roof, etc of their construction.
Thank you for your lovely feedback JoAnne. That sounds like a great activity. I'm sure your students will love it :-)
