Children work out how three colours create many more as faces overlap. With 96 squares, a class can build many cubes and cuboids at once and compare the colour effects. Polydron provides two free downloadable guides for this set: the Original Crystal Polydron Model Guide and the Colour Mixing Guide. The set weighs 2.6 kg and measures 19 x 18 x 8.5 cm in its sturdy reusable carton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor schools\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLinks maths and science: pupils build cubes and cuboids while exploring how primary and secondary colours form.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e96 squares support whole-class or group investigations at KS1 and KS2.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages prediction, observation and discussion as children rotate their models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks in SEND provision and Quality First Teaching as a concrete, visual resource.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDishwasher safe at 70°C and stored in a reusable carton.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFor parents and home use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTurns a simple cube into a colour experiment children can repeat again and again.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds fine motor skills as children join squares edge to edge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvites open-ended play and questions about light and colour.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable from age 4, with free downloadable guides for ideas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSupporting learners with SEND and learning differences\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHands-on construction helps many learners with SEND and learning differences understand ideas that are hard to explain in words. Building a cube from six squares makes the link between flat faces and a solid shape concrete. Watching colours change as a model turns gives an immediate, visual result that can hold attention and spark conversation. Joining squares also gives regular fine motor practice, and adults can set simple or open-ended tasks to suit each learner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Original Crystal Polydron CMY Class Set is available to order from The Dyslexia Shop, a UK specialist in resources for SEND and learning differences.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polydron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58214999523710,"sku":"TA2587","price":115.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0653\/6560\/6649\/files\/10-CMYCRYSTAL-SPECIAL.jpg?v=1791972641","url":"https:\/\/www.thedyslexiashop.co.uk\/products\/original-crystal-polydron-cmy-class-set-96-squares","provider":"The Dyslexia Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
