• Create and build shapes in the classroom with this Polydron Plastic Construction Set.
• Explore creative classroom activities with Polydron shapes. Create different 2D and 3D shapes, enhancing spatial reasoning skills.
• Encouraging creativity, the Polydron plastic shapes set supports expressive arts and design, and mathematics. Children can create 2D and 3D shapes, enhancing their spatial reasoning skills. This plastic construction set includes hexagons, pentagons, squares, and triangles. It is easy to clean, as it can be wiped with an alcohol-based sanitizer and a clean cloth, ensuring sanitizable classroom resources.
• The set aligns with EYFS goals, making it a valuable resource for educational group work activities. Practitioners can use this resource to support pattern recognition, identification, creation, and extension, including repeating patterns. This aids in the development of spatial awareness and pattern recognition skills crucial for early mathematics learning.
The Polydron shapes set encourages children to compose and decompose 2d and 3d shapes. It also encourages children to select, rotate, and manipulate shapes, promoting fine motor skills and problem-solving abilities.
