Congruent Shapes

How many ways can we make congruent shapes using pattern blocks???  Congruent shapes are the same size and the same shape.


This class has an amazing creativity!!  The class made a shape using pattern blocks.  Then they found different ways to make that same shape by using different pattern blocks.  When the same shape and same size shape is made, the shapes are congruent.  Look below at the congruent shapes.  Can you explain why they are congruent?
