Geometric Adventure

Teacher’s tips

Level of education: Elementary School

Age: 05 to 07 years old

Geometric shapes and the elementary relationships of geometry are everywhere. They are of fundamental importance to the development of the child's notion of space, as it explores the nature in which he circulates even before starting the counting process. The teaching of geometry is related to the child's daily life through problem solving, games, arts, exploration and manipulation of objects, among other activities. We designed this game to allow children to expand their knowledge and become familiar with flat geometric shapes, identifying their differences and similarities, awakening the need to observe their surroundings.
