Make a Tangram-like square puzzle with four pieces, as shown below.

Construction Suggestion
Use an 8 cm square cut from cardstock. Find the midpoint of each side of the square. Cut along lines drawn between adjacent midpoints to get the triangles. Fold the remaining piece in half and cut along the fold line.


You can, of course, put the four pieces back together to make a square.




Use the four pieces to make each of the shapes below.
