Rhinogons
Traditionally, primary school geometry has been based
on a limited range of shapes, with the result that many
children have similarly limited conceptions. If children
only experience familiar regular polygons, then they
will over generalise and suppose that all polygons are
regular and they will not understand the symmetry properties
that make a particular polygon a 'regular' one. Rhinogons
contain a wide variety of irregular shapes and are the
antidote to the 'look-and-say' approach. The set of
six Rhinogon tablets offers a wide variety of spatial
properties upon which a sound understanding of shape,
space and symmetry can be developed. Complete with teachers'
notes, worksheets to photocopy and solutions.

Rhino Fraction
Set
By breaking away from the familiar 'cake cutting' approach
to fractions, Rhino Fractions help to steer children away
from the confusion they suffer between fractions and symmetry,
i.e. that fractional pieces have to be the same shape
as well as size. Rhino Fractions offer children more interest
and challenge in their work on fractions, as well as providing
a better perceptual and conceptual basis. All of the fraction
families can be discovered in a practical and problem
solving way. The set contains six brightly coloured and
resilient tablets made from non-toxic, cross linked cellular
foam. Complete with teachers' notes and solutions.
