Today our math problem was, what shapes can you use to fill a triangle? Very fun! We explored for awhile and would meet back to discuss what we were finding. It didn't take them very long to figure out that you couldn't use a square or a tan rhombus...but boy, did they try!
Here is someone trying those hard to fit shapes! Does it work? Not quite!
Kurgan showed us how you can use 3 trapezoids to fill the triangle.
Oh, those orange squares again :) 
They requested that I take this picture of their castle for the hermit crabs :)
Our finished math problem of the day!
