Product Description:

Reinforce tricky geometry concepts with these colorful, hands-on shapes. Each 4" x 4" 3D shape is made of clear plastic with a colorful, plastic, folding net housed inside. The durable plastic nets are creased and folded to fit perfectly inside the matching shapewhen unfolded, they sort of resemble mini gift boxes before they have been assembled. The bottom of each 3D shape contains the name of the shape, plus a removable panel for easy insertion and removal of the nets. The set contains 11 shapes in 6 different colors: a red triangular prism, a red triangular pyramid, a yellow square pyramid, a yellow cube, a purple rectangular prism, a blue pentagonal prism, a blue pentagonal pyramid, a green hexagonal pyramid, a green hexagonal prism, an orange cylinder, and an orange cone. The 2D nets provide a great way to actually see the surface area of these shapes. ~ Lisa

This is a great visual to help students understand the relationship between nets and their corresponding 3D shape.

This is such a great and concrete way to show kids how 2D shapes and 3D objects relate to one another.

My seventh grade daughter had fun using this at school and wanted to get it for home.

I liked that the shapes had inserts that could lay flat. I will be tutoring and hope this will help the kids understand the 3D shapes better.

These 3 D shapes are great. They are a nice size and unfold so that they are easy for students to see. I have them around my classroom and their colors are nice. Well worth the money

These are great Inside each clear plastic shape is a colored-plastic removable insert The insert folds out flat I bought this set to help my children visualize the surface area of a solid It was exactly what we needed The set would also be great for comparing the volume of different shapes The photo doesn't do this set justice The pieces are fairly large and quite sturdy I'm sure I will be using them again as we study various topics involving geometry This is one of those great hands-on tools that will work with any math curriculum I think these would be appropriate starting around the pre-algebra level up through high school geometry
