• Recognise, describe and build simple 3-D shapes, including making nets.
• EYFS, Mathematics
• Combine shapes to make new ones, for example, an arch or a bigger triangle.
• EYFS, Mathematics
• Select, rotate and manipulate shapes to develop spatial reasoning skills.
• EYFS, Mathematics
• Encourage children to play freely with blocks, shapes, puzzles, and shape sorters.
• 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.
• A versatile addition to the Polydron range, offering new shapes for creative geometrical designs.
• Includes pentagons, rectangles, and right-angled triangles, broadening possibilities for educational construction and model-making.
• This product enriches geometry education by being specifically designed with magnetic features that enhance its application in teaching properties of shapes. It encourages understanding geometric configurations for children aged three to eleven years.
• It serves the UK curriculum by enabling practical understanding of 3-D shapes as detailed in Year 6 and further supplies Year 3 learners the necessary tools for recognising shapes in various orientations. It supports the learning in the Early Years stage with free-form play.
Warning: Contains magnets which require care in handling. Medical attention is necessary if magnets are swallowed or inhaled.
• The Magnetic Polydron Extra shapes set is perfect for adding to existing polydron sets to enhance learning of geometry in KS1 and KS2.
