Description

Unlock the world of shapes and mathematical exploration with the Magnetic Polydron Mathematics Set. Designed specifically for primary school children, this comprehensive class set contains everything you need to teach 2D and 3D shapes in an engaging and hands-on way.
With a total of 118 pieces, including 11 different shapes, this set offers endless possibilities for building and constructing. It includes 20 equilateral triangles, 12 right angle triangles, 12 isosceles triangles, 20 squares, 10 rectangles, 12 pentagons, 4 hexagons, 8 sphere pieces, 12 quadrant pieces, 4 cone pieces, 4 cylinder pieces, and a guide to assist in teaching and learning.

The Magnetic Polydron Mathematics Set covers a wide range of shapes, from basic ones such as squares and rectangles to more intricate ones like cylinders and cones. Children can explore and understand the characteristics of these shapes as they build models such as tetrahedrons, cubes, octahedrons, icosahedrons, and dodecahedrons, enabling them to discover the properties of platonic solids.

Additionally, this set allows children to create a variety of prisms, anti-prisms, and pyramids, promoting further understanding of geometric concepts. As children progress, they can also delve into making spheres, cylinders, cones, and even examine cross sections of these shapes, enriching their spatial awareness and mathematical reasoning.

The open-frame pieces in the Magnetic Polydron Mathematics Set offer a unique teaching advantage, as they allow children to see the internal structure of their creations, enhancing their understanding of shape and space.

All pieces in this set are magnetic, providing easy connectivity and manipulation during play. Each square measures 6 x 6cm (2.4 x 2.4 inches), making them conveniently sized for young learners to handle and explore.

Unleash the potential of mathematical exploration with the Magnetic Polydron Mathematics Set. Watch as children engage in hands-on learning, discovering the wonders of geometry and developing essential problem-solving skills. This set is a valuable tool for educators seeking to ignite a passion for mathematics and shape recognition in young minds.
