Get students excited about geometry with the Multipoly Construction Set. The kit includes 36 triangles, 12 pentagons, 12 squares, and 12 half hexagons, which can be attached together using supplied platic clips to create complex 2-D mathematical mosaics and 3-D shapes. Have students build through trial-and-error, or give them directions to create more complex shapes. Use the shapes students have created to teach the names of geometric solids and demonstrate geometry concepts, such as face, point and angle. Multipoly can be used at all levels of study in geometry, and even young children will be able to manipulate the pieces. The set is large enough to allow construction of all five platonic solids at the same time.
