Set of 250 Wooden Pattern Blocks (1 cm thick) in jar
- Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.
Oh, the feel of a nice, thick (1 cm.) wooden pattern block! Don't tell your children that these aren't just toys! The bright, enticing primary colors seem to draw even the smallest of our children into play. Proportioned shapes allow for the construction of infinite designs. Even before they begin to use them for "work" on symmetry, congruence, similarity, measurement, fractional relationships, counting, sorting, and geometry, they are discovering the unique relationships between the blocks and getting plenty of experience in patterning and spatial problem-solving. We've had hours of enjoyment with our set and, with 250 blocks to the bucket, there's enough for several children to construct or work simultaneously.
This durable set of wooden pattern blocks provides a lifetime of use. Perfect for counting, sorting, linear measurement and matching. Each set contains 250 pieces.
The most popular homeschooling math program hands down! Highly recommended by both Mary Pride and Cathy Duffy, Saxon Math also wins our award for the "Most Requested Text." Saxon math is a "user-friendly" math program - even for Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus and other usually difficult math topics. Learning is incremental and each new concept is continuously reviewed, so the learning has time to "sink in" instead of being forgotten when the next topic is presented. Higher scores on standardized tests and increased enrollments in upper-level math and science classes have resulted where Saxon has been used in public schools. Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed. Because of the format, children are able to work more independently.
Tried and true, Saxon Math has been widely
used by generations of homeschoolers. Learning is incremental and
each new concept is continuously reviewed, so the learning has time
to “sink in” instead of being forgotten when the next topic is presented. Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead
of overwhelmed. K-3 levels are manipulative-based, and the lessons
are parent-centered. Lessons are scripted for the parent, and there
is a list of required manipulatives.
The Teacher's Manual contains the actual lesson plans and information vital to the effective presentation of math concepts. The consumable Meeting Books are used during the teacher-student "meeting" in which concepts are introduced, demonstrated and practiced. If teaching more than one student at the same level, you will only need one meeting book. Consumable Student Workbooks are used in grades 1-3 only and contain student materials, flash cards and practice pages. The Math K Home Study Kit contains teacher edition and meeting book. Math 1, 2, and 3 kits contain teacher edition, meeting book, and a set of 2 workbooks. Manipulatives are a vital, integral part of the program; these are not included in the Home Study Kits, but are available through us also.
Manipulatives are an integral part of the K-3
programs. These are not included in the Home Study Kit and must be
purchased separately. Some manipulatives are considered required and
some are optional; we offer kits both ways to fit your budget. See our
website for even more options and upgrades, including complete K-3
manipulative kits.
Sets include green triangle, orange square, red trapezoid, tan rhombus, blue parallelogram, and yellow hexagon. Sets come in either plastic or wood, and vary in thickness and quantity.
