Jumbo Regular & Irregular Shapes

• Explore foundational concepts of symmetry and balance with vibrant, translucent geometric shapes in six bright colours. • Children match inner and outer pieces by attributes, learning that different shapes can share common properties. • With their vibrant colours and varied shapes, these educational resources support multiple aspects of learning. Children gain foundational geometry insights as they explore how regular and irregular shapes differ yet relate in terms of angles and sides. The set can be used to demonstrate that regular shapes have equal angles and sides; irregular shapes can have angles and sides of any value. The mathematical extension of this process is that the sum of the interior angles of a regular shape will always be equal to the sum of the interior angles of the corresponding irregular shape. An ideal resource for learning about shape names and their properties, as well as mathematical terms such as side, point, curve, inside, outside, flat, 2D, solid, 3D, angle and symmetry. Can also be used for shape and colour recognition, colour mixing, as templates for drawing and colouring, as a shape matching puzzle and for investigating on a light panel. The shapes are made from 3mm acrylic and each one comes with a 2.5mm hole at the top balance point so they can be strung up against a window or outdoors to create colourful shape shadows. Size of circle: 150mm dia. • The versatility extends beyond simple recognition: they serve as engaging puzzles, colour mixing tools, and even drawing templates. Mounted or used against light, these shapes can project enchanting colour shadows, offering a playful approach to learning. Ideal for classroom settings, the regular and irregular shapes encourage group activities and individual exploration alike, promoting an intuitive understanding of complex mathematical concepts through practical, hands-on learning. • An ideal resource for learning about shape names and their properties, as well as mathematical terms such as side, point, curve, inside, outside, flat, 2D, solid, 3D, angle and symmetry • The inner and outer puzzle pieces match, by their colour and their attributes • The set can be used to demonstrate that regular shapes have equal angles and sides; irregular shapes can have angles and sides of any value
