• Compose and decompose shapes so that children recognise a shape can have other shapes within it.
• Mathematics, Year 1, Geometry - Properties of Shapes
• Recognise and name common 2-D and 3-D shapes.
• Mathematics, Year 2, Geometry - Properties of Shapes
• Identify 2-D shapes on the surface of 3-D shapes, (for example, a circle on a cylinder and a triangle on a pyramid).
• Mathematics, Year 3, Geometry - Properties of Shapes
• Draw 2-D shapes and make 3-D shapes using modelling materials and recognise 3-D shapes in different orientations and describe them.
• Transformative plastic shapes that illustrate 2D and 3D differences, suitable for 3 to 6-year-olds.
• Designed to enhance geometry lessons, this set improves young learners' measurement skills and problem-solving abilities effectively.
• Designed for a wide variety of age groups, this 2D and 3D Geometric Shapes Set simplifies geometry concepts through practical engagement. With an included activity guide aligned with the EYFS curriculum and suitable for Key Stages 1 and 2, it offers a variety of hands-on exercises. These activities encourage both independent and collaborative learning, fostering an inclusive and supportive environment.
• Children's understanding of spatial relationships, volume, and surface area is deepened through interactive play. The set facilitates a tactile learning experience, enabling children to grasp complex geometric principles easily.
By handling the shapes and comparing them with objects from their environment, learners can connect mathematical concepts with the real world, laying a solid foundation for their academic growth in mathematics. The purposeful design encourages curiosity and exploration, enhancing young learners' analytical skills while providing endless opportunities for discovery.
• The 2D and 3D Geometric Shapes are ideal for geometry, measurement and problem solving in KS1 and KS2
