Pattern Blocks provide a unique way to encourage relationships among shapes and are a must-have when teaching math concepts. The six geometric, color-coded shapes including triangles, squares, parallelograms, rhombuses, trapezoids, and hexagons, encourage hands-on exploration of fractions and other mathematical concepts. Whether working independently or in groups, Pattern Blocks allow students to develop math familiarity and intuition. They provide a visual image essential for understanding real numbers. And, educators are able to enhance and expand teaching possibilities by simply adding these colorful manipulatives to the lesson plan. Pattern Blocks are essential to teaching:
- Problem-solving
- Fractions
- Geometry Concepts
- Probability
-
Algebra Readiness
- Symmetry
- And more
