About This Product
Building a solid from rods and balls makes its structure obvious: each rod becomes an edge and each ball a vertex, so pupils can count them directly. With 250 rods in 6 lengths, children can construct many different models, and building a pyramid and a prism side by side shows how the two differ. The open-ended set also leaves room for creative building.
