The durable plastic shapes of the Polydron geometric construction system feature a unique clip hinge. This allows students to snap the shapes together to easily explore two-dimensional nets and three-dimensional solids; perimeter, volume, vertices, and angles; and Euler’s Formula. Construct all five Platonic Solids: tetrahedron, cube, dodecahedron, octahedron, and icosahedron! Grades K–12.

These Polygon Shapes snap together to form polyhedrons. They provide wonderful hands-on learning opportunities. Be sure and get the activity book also, so you can use these well. Students love them and don't even realize they are learning as they first snap them together to form the net, and then fold them up to make the polyhedron. They can then count faces, vertices, and edges, and "discover" Euler's formula. I have used these for 5 years and they are always a wonderful learning experience.
