| Puzzle Packs McRuffy
puzzle packs help build spatial reasoning and skills. Spatial reasoning is the
ability to determine how shapes fit together and how they fill a space (puzzle
mat). Geoboards and three kinds of puzzle pieces are used. Children can make their
own designs and mats for a creative exercise in geometry. All materials are reproducible!
