Tarsia Puzzle: AFRICAN COUNTRIES AND FLAGS (2 Puzzles)

In this activity, students will practicematching all 54 African countries with their flags, as they piece together the pieces of each tarsia puzzle. Students will match their answers with a separate puzzle piece until all the countries have ‘found’ their flag and the puzzle is completed.

These GEOGRAPHY TARSIA PUZZLES are a FUN way for students to practice their multiplication facts that doesn’t involve a worksheet. The puzzle activity works well for individuals, as well as small groups. Alternatively, you can set up stations around the room, and have students or groups rotate to each station for a new math puzzle/game.

Print multiple copies of each tarsia puzzle and place the pieces in separate plastic bags for safekeeping.
Print the puzzles on colored paper if you find the black and white version too “dull”.
Print the puzzles on large sized paper, if you want the pieces to be extra large.
Laminate the puzzle pieces BEFORE your students cut them out. It will allow you to use them for years to come.
Code the backside of each puzzle piece, so it is easier to find which plastic bag they belong to in case they get mixed up with other pieces.
