Session 2- Tangram 七qī 巧qiăo 板băn

The Tangram (七qī 巧qiăo 板băn "seven boards of skill") originated from China during the song Dynasty. Tangrams were brought to America by Chinese and American ships during the first part of the nineteenth century. The earliest example known is made of ivory in a silk box and was given to the son of an American ship owner in 1802.
Tangram is a dissection puzzle. It has 7 pieces, which fit together to form different shapes, such as the animals you see from the pictures below. The goal is to form a specific shape with the seven pieces. ~~Information from Wikipedia
See the pictures above? Can you find swans, camels, and foxes?
