A glance at these colorful turtles may not immediately bring geometry to mind, but it would be difficult to find a manipulative better suited to illustrating complex geometric concepts than Reptangles. If rotational symmetries, truncated octahedrons, and lesser rhombicuboctahedrons sound like a foreign language to you, let alone your student, consider adding a set of Reptangles to your math manipulatives. With 80 puzzles included, your child will gain hands-on experience with all of these concepts and more. Even a child you wouldn’t ordinarily consider ready for geometry will spend hours with Reptangles reconstructing the various models and reconfiguring the turtles with all the benefits of a jigsaw puzzle and the fun of building a 3D model.
