Formulator Tarsia- for creating puzzles

Challenge your students ...they will learn in the process.
Solving Math puzzle is a dynamic strategy in learning process. Formulator Tarsia is a free software which allows you to create puzzles based on jigsaw activities. The students are given a set of tiles which must be matched edge-to-edge to complete the shape. Mathematical questions are given along these edges. Jigsaw puzzles can be created based on triangle, square, rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram, hexagon and parquet patterns of tesselating shapes.

Here is the solution...
