These little geometric shapes are ideal for introducing and reinforcing fundamental geometry concepts. The 32-piece set includes eight shapes in four different sizes. The bright colours promote student engagement, whilst being made from durable plastic, they are designed to withstand frequent classroom use.

Perfect for attribute practise

With four different sizes of each shape included, this set is ideal for practising attribute identification, classification, and grouping. The pieces can be sorted by flat vs curved surfaces, faces, number of vertices, edges, and corners. The array of colours (red, blue, green, and yellow) allows the option to further develop the complexity of attribute sorting.

Geometric solids are a classroom staple for teaching shape identification. Working individually or in small groups, students can familiarise themselves with the shapes by sketching 2D and 3D impressions, practising measuring different aspects and comparing similarities and differences. All of these activities promote the use of mathematical and reasoning language.
