Teachables Folding Geometric Shapes - With Activity Cards

This Geometric Folding Shapes & Activity Cards Kit includes one set of geometric folding shapes (TFC10763) and one set of activity cards (TFC10772). The clever 2-in-1 folding shapes demonstrate both three-dimensional solids and their corresponding nets. Each set includes 11 geometric solids and 11 folding net inserts. The accompanying activity cards offer a variety of hands-on activities that help students make concrete connections between 2D and 3D concepts, such as symmetry, surface area, Euler's formula, and more. This kit supports differentiated instruction and is perfect for use in both individual and small group activities. It encourages students to explore geometry concepts in an interactive way, fostering a deeper understanding of shapes, volume, and area.

Educational Benefits:

• Develops spatial reasoning by allowing students to fold nets into 3D shapes.
• Reinforces geometry principles such as symmetry, volume, surface area, and Euler's formula.
• Encourages critical thinking and problem-solving through hands-on activities.
• Supports differentiated instruction with activities that can be tailored to different learning needs.

Classroom Ideas:

• Have students fold geometric nets and compare the resulting shapes.
• Use the activity cards to explore topics such as symmetry, area, and Euler's formula.
• Encourage collaborative learning with small group activities, where students build 3D shapes and discuss their properties.
• Incorporate this kit in geometry lessons for interactive, hands-on learning.
