A great collection of bright, three-dimensional translucent shapes. Students can compare and analyse the different shapes and get an understanding of geometry concepts from an early age. Perfect for hands-on explorations!The large demonstration sized geometric translucent shapes set consists of 12 large shapes, each measuring 10cm high, and supplied in 6 colours. Because all the shapes have the same height (except the hemisphere which is half the size), this allows students to illustrate relationships between area, volume, shape, form and size.
The shapes included are a cube, large rectangular prism, small rectangular prism, triangular prism, triangular pyramid, square pyramid, cylinder, sphere, hemisphere, cone, pentagonal prism and hexagonal prism. The shapes are a perfect demonstration size, for the whole class to see.
The translucent shapes allow students to examine the relationship between 2D and 3D shapes, because of the removable caps on each of the shapes. The shapes can also be filled with liquids to compare volume relationships.
Geometric shapes set are a great tool to identify the different attributes of each shape, because students can see the shapes from each angle. Students can compare the shapes in the set with every day objects or find the number of faces and edges each shape has, to find out what makes each shape unique. The shapes can even be used for physics classes, so identify the shapes that easily roll, slide or can be stacked. By tracing the outline of the shapes, student can compare 2D and 3D shapes.
