Pentomino Workshop with the Wright 3 Virtual Tour

  • July 09, 2013
  • 2:30 PM - 3:30 PM
  • Niles Public Library

 

Pentominoes have been popularized by the characters in The Wright 3, a popular novel by best-selling author Blue Balliett, who used three-dimensional pentominoes as their inspiration in solving the mystery. During the workshop, children build, design, solve problems and learn to think critically using these classic geometric puzzle pieces. The children will also enjoy The Wright 3 virtual tour, an interactive presentation and discussion focusing on The Wright 3 tour of Wright’s Robie House, the setting for the popular book.

 

Workshop is appropriate for children in grades 4-8.


Admission: Free

Registration begins June 6. Pre-registration is required.
