Polydron pieces are tough and durable plastic shapes that feature unique hinge clips that snap together allowing for easy construction of two-dimensional nets and three-dimensional solids. Great for all ages just use your imagination to design and create both basic and complex shapes in a snap. This 160 piece set allows for the construction of the 13 different Archimedean solids. Archimedean solids have been known to mathematicians for over 2000 years. The framework design allows for individuals to see inside the shapes as well as the outer shell. This set encourages exploration and visualization, as well as interest and understanding of geometry and the role it plays in architecture and engineering. Set includes 80 equilateral triangles, 30 squares, 12 pentagons, 20 hexagons, 6 octagons, 12 decagons along with activity cards, and a teacher’s guide.
