Rainbow colour groups
Twenty-one shapes form seven rainbow groups, with three different 2D shapes in each colour. Use them for sorting and discussing shape names, mathematical terms, and regular and irregular shapes.
-
3mm acrylic
The acrylic shapes are 3mm thick. They can be used on a light panel, allowing children to examine geometric forms through illuminated surfaces during practical exploration with clear visibility.
-
Balance point holes
A 2.5mm hole sits at the top balance point of every shape. This allows the shapes to be strung up against a window or outdoors, creating colour shape shadows for visual exploration and discussion.
-
Compare visual properties
Regular and irregular versions give children a clear basis for comparing geometric shapes. This supports discussion of their visual properties and mathematical vocabulary.
-
Recognise and name shapes
For Key Stage 1 Mathematics, the shapes support recognising and naming common 2D and 3D shapes. Children can handle the geometric forms while practising accurate shape vocabulary with peers.
Glitter Rainbow Shapes
A set of twenty-one glitter geometric shapes in seven rainbow colours.
Overview
Use colour-coded 2D shapes to practise shape names, mathematical terms, and sorting regular and irregular shapes.
The glitter surface gives children visual examples for discussing geometric shapes, shape names and mathematical terms. The varied 2D forms provide concrete reference points for practical maths activities, helping children describe what they see and compare different shapes using accurate vocabulary.
For Key Stage 1 Mathematics, children can compare and sort the 2D shapes by their visible features. The contrasting forms support the aim to compare and sort common 2D and 3D shapes and everyday objects through practical classification activities.
The shapes also support identifying and describing properties of 2D shapes, including the number of sides and line symmetry in a vertical line. Their 3mm acrylic construction suits use on a light panel, while 2.5mm holes allow display against windows or outdoors.
