Tangram Chess

Tangram Chess is the latest educational iOS Math app by Math File Folder Games.  This is a fantastic app for teaching different aspects of Math such as: translations, rotations, and reflections.  The way this works is simple a student can play one player or two (on same device or via bluetooth on separate devices) and try to move move their shapes from one side of the chess board to the other.  They do this by using translations, rotations, and reflections to move their shapes and reconstruct their image on the other side of board.

As w/ all Math File Folder Games they are bluetooth enabled for multi-player across separate devices as well as the option to email scores to parents/teachers so they can monitor progress.  Also, all games are aligned to common core standards and are printable to be used w/ the whole class.

I highly recommend checking out Tangram Chess by clicking here.
