Pentominoes


In the book Chasing Vermeer, and the rest of the series, one of the characters, Calder Pillay, has a kind of toy, or a math tool, called pentominoes. They are really fun to play with. You are supposed to make different shaped and numbered rectangles out of them. I have a set and have made a three piece, a six piece and a twelve piece. Don't ask me how I got the tweleve piece. I haven't a clue.
