• Recognise and name common 2-D and 3-D shapes.
• Mathematics, Year 2, Geometry - Properties of Shapes
• Identify and describe the properties of 2-D shapes, including the number of sides, and line symmetry in a vertical line.
• Mathematics, Year 3, Geometry - Properties of Shapes
• Identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines.
• Encourage children to explore geometric shape relationships and properties with this versatile set.
• Includes 60 durable blocks in various shapes, sizes, thicknesses, and colours with a handy storage tray for easy organisation.
• Children need to understand geometric relationships. This set enhances their understanding of geometry through hands-on learning. It includes 60 blocks in various shapes, sizes, thicknesses, and colours, all made from durable plastic designed to withstand regular classroom use, and comes with a handy storage tray for easy organisation.
• In Year 1, children can use these blocks to recognise and name common 2-D and 3-D shapes, aligning with the curriculum's focus on geometry properties. By manipulating the blocks, children gain a tactile understanding of shape attributes, enhancing their ability to identify and describe them accurately.
For Year 2 and Year 3, the set supports more advanced geometry topics, such as identifying horizontal and vertical lines, pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines, and understanding line symmetry. This practical approach helps solidify theoretical concepts, making abstract ideas more accessible and engaging for children.
