Description
This game bundle contains 6 distinct games using the same material. All these games use the same set of Tangram pieces, and some of them can use (one of) the extra 25 boards. In fact, you can also play those games one one of the boards from Tricksy Tangrams if you bought that product too!
We bundle them to save you ink and cutting, and to provide as much value as possible at once. The games are all clearly different, ranging from very easy to quite challenging, some being cooperative and some competitive. This means there is sure to be a game in there that fits your specific player(s). Especially the easiest games can surely be played with very young Apprentices.
The 25 Pentomino Puzzle Boards provided here are new ones, not found in Tricksy Tangrams. They contain extra icons to make one specific game possible.
This product also includes the massive Pre-Reader Prompt Cards product for free! You need it for one of the games, and it felt bad to ask you to buy it just for that.
This project is part of “Tessella’s Toolbox”. “Tessellation” means the act of dividing a larger shape or image into smaller parts, such as creating a mosaic or a jigsaw puzzle. Pentominoes are just one of many ways to do this, as this bundle asks you to combine them in such a way that you recreate the image of an animal or other common object. If you liked this, check out the many other puzzles/challenges in this project. A good recommendation is to play Potent Pentominoes.

Subject: Mathematics
The curriculum is split into six main subjects that align with your typical school subjects.
This resource is part of the Mathematics subject. Below is a summary:
This subject teaches Mathematics from first principles to calculus. Level 1 explores the basic skills needed before you do any counting or see any numbers (such as grouping and comparing objects). Level 2(+) can then introduce numbers, counting, addition, multiplication, and more.
Faction: Gamiverses
This resource is part of the Gamiverses Faction.
But that's just one way to teach and explore its topic(s)!
You can always move to a different Faction to find a more effective way to teach the same topic.
Played a quiz? Try a game! Played a game? Try an escape room! And so on.
For example,
Charm: Board Game
This product is part of the Board Game charm.
Visit its main page to learn more about what that means. Below is a summary:
Board Games are simply physical games (as opposed to video games). They could be played using cards, without a board, with players physically moving around, anything.
Our board games follow the rule that your first game should only require a single page of setup + rules. Most of them are cooperative multiplayer experiences.
Spell: My First Shapes
This resource is part of the My First Shapes topic (or "spell").
Just like colors, shapes provide an easy way to categorize the world around us and break it into smaller parts. This helps understand the world better: now you can explicitly ask your parents for the square thing, for example. It also enables teaching crucial skills such as grouping and combining later.
This resource also covers other topics. To keep things simple, the curriculum always considers the first topic listed to be the most important.
