I had never done a scissors and glue lesson on Pythagoras until I came up with this simple idea (it might seem complicated at first glance but it is not). This activity worked well with average Year 9s. They understood because it is concrete and they liked doing it. It is a simple proof of Pythagoras and done on coloured A3 and will produce a great wall display. It takes about 50 minutes.

This is a splendid idea for a hands-on introduction to a proof of Pythagoras that will also produce a potentially magnificent display. I like it. Thanks for sharing.
