GEOCUBE is made of 25 multipositionable magnetic cubes with geometric shapes in different colors and includes patterns scale 1 with 7 pieces only as well as patterns in 2D and 3D till 25 pieces.

 

Educational benefits :
Recognition of geometric shapes and colors - Reproducing figures by assembling geometric shapes to match a pattern in 2D and 3D - Spatial orientation - Concept of background, plan, negative / positive - Notions of symmetry. Pixelation. Concepts of contrast and shadow - Notions of arts.

Description :

Set of 25 reversible magnetic cubes  printed with 5 geometric shapes composed of 1 isosceles triangle, 1 right triangle, 1 circle, 1 semi-circle and 1 quadrant allowing to realize predetermined models or make personal compositions.

 

Each cube is printed on 4 sides with the geometric shape based on a positive/negative color pair, ie black/white and white/black, red/white and white/red, pink/purple and purple/pink as well as orange/green and green/orange. The upper face of the cube is black while the underside is white.

 

2) Teaching guide:

38 independent, inclusive and funny lessons, scheduled also to make children with AND without visual impairment play together !

 

This booklet, in digital version, offers 38 independent lessons from one another allowing the use of GEOCUBEs in a school, rehabilitation or family setting.

 

Classified by level of difficulty of 1, 2 or 3 characters, the fun activities are aimed at children from 4 to 6 years old.

 

They are ideal to offer during free time, as a warm-up or in session, in class, in rehabilitation or at home.


Each of them aims to acquire academic and rehabilitation skills.

 

Tables summarizing these can be found in the appendix.

 

They make it easier to identify the activities that adults want to offer the child as a priority.

 

They are designed for children with or without visual impairment.

The use of sides with high contrast (black / white; red / black) between the background and the pattern allows visually impaired children to perform the activities without difficulty.

 

This booklet, printed in colors, accompanies and completes the GEOCUBE game.

 

Inspired by Montessori pedagogy.
