Large Set
The set includes thirty-two large, brightly coloured dominoes. Each piece measures seventy-five millimetres by one hundred five millimetres, making them easy to handle and visually engaging.
-
Single Axis Symmetry
These dominoes introduce the concept of single-axis symmetry, and help children understand this fundamental geometric principle through play with symmetry dominoes.
-
Durable Construction
Made from thick durable cardboard, these symmetry dominoes withstand frequent use, ensuring longevity in educational settings.
-
Skill Development
Playing with these symmetry dominoes helps develop concentration, fine motor skills, spatial awareness, and hand-eye coordination.
-
Geometry Focus
Supports Year Four geometry curriculum by helping children identify lines of symmetry in two-dimensional shapes in various orientations.
Symmetry Dominoes
Bright, snappy symmetry dominoes that help explore mathematical structures and patterns.
Overview
Children need effective tools to explore and understand symmetry. Symmetry dominoes enhance learning by allowing children to independently and collaboratively investigate this concept. These brightly coloured dominoes help develop spatial reasoning skills and understanding of mathematical structures and patterns.
In Year Four mathematics, these dominoes support the curriculum by helping children identify lines of symmetry in two-dimensional shapes presented in different orientations. They also assist in completing simple symmetric figures with respect to a specific line of symmetry. This hands-on approach makes abstract concepts more tangible and easier to grasp.
For younger children in Year Two and EYFS, the dominoes aid in identifying and describing the properties of two-dimensional shapes, such as the number of sides and line symmetry in a vertical line. The engaging nature of the game also supports the development of fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
