Description
Shapes included are: a hexagon, a trapezium, a right-angled triangle, an equilateral triangle; a square and three different rhombus pieces (with angles 60/120, 45/135 and 30/150).
Many activities have been written for pattern blocks but my personal favourite is to have students work out the angles in each of the shapes by only knowing that a revolution is 360 degrees. No protractor required.
As the blocks are metric and the side lengths are integer values, they can be used at all year levels from counting in the early years to later as a concrete material for concepts such as perimeter and area.
