What educators are saying

I cannot express how much I love this resource. My students loved it too! It was very engaging and very hands on and my students were able to further understand the shapes because they were building them and then identifying their attributes.
My students LOVED this! We used it in our morning tubs as well as in math for our geometry unit! Worth the purchase!

After building each shape, children take their learning one step further and label the number of vertices and edges. The STEM structure cards are perfect for engineers from preschool to second grade!

Just grab a box of toothpicks and a container of playdough and you're ready to start problem solving.

You can even switch out the playdough for jelly beans, marshmallows or gumdrops to add a fun, seasonal twist.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall size.
Identify shapes as two-dimensional (lying in a plane, “flat”) or three-dimensional (“solid”).
Analyze and compare two- and three-dimensional shapes, in different sizes and orientations, using informal language to describe their similarities, differences, parts (e.g., number of sides and vertices/“corners”) and other attributes (e.g., having sides of equal length).
Model shapes in the world by building shapes from components (e.g., sticks and clay balls) and drawing shapes.
Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, and quarter-circles) or three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, and right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape, and compose new shapes from the composite shape.
