This is a bumper class set of 2000 plastic interlocking 2cm cubes. Cubes are a staple of the school environment because they can be applied to pretty much any topic! They’re particularly applicable in the mathematics classroom, where you could use them to teach arithmetic, sorting, area, perimeter, fractions, and sequences.

Colourful and durable

A failsafe method for engaging students with mathematics, these colourful cubes are bound to catch the eye. They’re supplied in ten bright colours: Light and dark green, yellow, red, orange, blue, black, pink, white, and brown. Made from tough plastic, the cubes interlock securely with each other through an easy push to clip method. They’ll survive constant use in a busy classroom and are simple to clean between uses.

Ideas for using your cubes

Included with the set is a book written by Dr Paul Swan, packed full of ideas for how to apply your cubes for educational benefit. Helpful colour diagrams illustrate the activities and concepts. Beyond the booklet, the cubes are easily adaptable to suit the age group you’re working with. You could be starting off with basic counting and sorting tasks, moving through to visualising fractions, or using the cubes as a component of engaging probability experiments. You don’t need to stop at maths, why not try weighing and measuring the cubes to practise key investigative science skills? A class set of 2000 is plenty to keep your students busy! They’ll have the flexibility to utilise the full range of colours for the activity at hand. The set is stored in a sturdy Gratnells Jumbo Tray with lid, ideal for placement in the class trolly or neat stacking in the storeroom.
