Giant Transparent Cones
Four large display pieces make
it easy for secondary-level
students to see examples of
advanced algebraic principles
and formulas. Clear plastic set
includes a two-piece hyperbola,
an ellipse, and a parabola. Each
piece is 35 cm tall and has a
tinted section model inside.

A. Power Solids®
These versatile, translucent, plastic
geometric solids use the standard
dimensions of Pattern Blocks as their bases, thus
extending that familiar manipulative into three dimensions. The solids
range from 1"–2" in height and width and may be filled with solid or liquid
material to compare the volume of cones to cylinders, pyramids to cubes,
rectangular prisms to cubes, or triangular prisms to hexagonal prisms.
