Important and critical skills for students to acquire are those of recognising, visualising and drawing shapes and describing the features and properties of three-dimensional objects and two-dimensional shapes in static and dynamic situations.
The manipulation of a variety of real objects and shapes is crucial to the development of appropriate levels of imagery, language and representation.
These playdough mats do exactly that! Supporting fine motor skills, while exploring the properties of shapes - children are encouraged to engage with a variety of media and resources to represent shapes (and relate these shapes to those within the environment)
