Tangrams and fractions
Fractions work includes files for Tangrams. Great fun folding to make the 7 shapes following screens here. Find the area of each shape (proving it) as a fraction: original square has area 1 unit. Then make silhouette shapes from all 7 pieces without overlap.
More information about Tangrams can be found here including historical information.
