New page

=== Age ===

6-9.

=== Materials ===

*An envelope of 54 triangles of 3 different colors; of 3 different sizes and 6 types: 9 acute-angled isosceles triangles 9 right-angled isosceles triangles 9 obtuse-angled isosceles triangles (three of each color) 9 acute-angled scalene triangles (three of each size) 9 right-angled scalene triangles 9 obtuse-angled scalene triangles

=== Preparation ===

Directress and child. 

=== Presentation ===

#The triangles are scattered on the table.
#The directress says, "I want only one of these. Can you guess which one it is?"
#The child may guess or choose one.
#"No, that is not the color of the one I want".
#The child guesses the color and isolates all of the triangles of the right color.
#The guessing goes on, each time eliminating some triangles as the qualities are narrowed down.
#As each correct quality is identified, the directress writes a label, i.e. after the child has found that the triangle must be green, the three labels are arranged: the green triangle.
#At the end, when only one triangle is left, the adjectives cover all of its characteristics: the large green obtuse-angled isosceles triangle.
#The child reads the labels.
#Directress says: "It was necessary to use many adjectives to find the right triangle from among that large group".
#The labels are taken up and mixed and lain out again.
#"With the same adjectives we would still be able to find the correct triangle, but the arrangement/order of the adjectives usually sounds best in only one way".
#The child rearranges them to find which order sounds best.
