Visual Thinking Research




The Cat and the Triangles: 

To find the total number of triangles that make up the cat I went through and numbered all of the triangles that were completely visible, even if they were really only part of another triangle or made by two triangles placed together. 
My mom went through the cat and colored in all of the triangles and did not count the ones created by two triangles together, such as in the tail.
The visual concept that was being used here is Categorizing. 

         
Match the Blocks: 
For this exercise we went through and had to figure out which block patterns were the same. There are two of each kind and we needed to figure out which ones matched even though they are not in the same positions. 
We went through and basically did the same things. We looked at the separate pieces of the blocks in total and took them apart by coloring in sides and then matching them together.
