THE JENETIC JIGSAW

About Jenetic Jigsaw Kits

New manipulative toys feature educational and creative options in 3D model building-- from puzzle solving and geometric explorations to molecular bonding.

Bellingham, Wa (PRWEB) March 25, 2004 -- The Jenetic Jigsaw Company is introducing three new construction kits that use just two polygon types—the square and the equilateral triangle. Both shapes have integral, edge-mounted hinge elements that permit two, three, or four polygons to hinge together on any of their edges; or multiple polyhedra to hinge face-to-face or edge-to-edge. From these two basic polygons flow a cornucopia of educational and artistic possibilities that help to promote creativity, spatial thinking, and problem solving while illustrating important concepts in math and science.

Puzzle Squares Kit This hands-on construction kit is for those who enjoy puzzles and building 3D things. Start by creating buildings, cubes, and wheels; then go on to lattices, spheres, and extroverted polyhedra. Try constructs that transform, rotate, pump, expand, and collapse. View the Puzzle Squares Gallery to see the possibilities, then create your own! Recommended for ages 10 and up.

Geometry Kit This kit is designed for teaching three-dimensional geometry in grades 8 - 10. Students can build and study complex polyhedra using integrally hinged plastic triangles, paper cutouts, dowels, straws, rubber bands, a 24-page illustrated Construction Guide, and a 35-page Geometry Workbook.

The Geometry of Chemistry Kit This kit includes an illustrated Geometry/Chemistry Guide Book and is recommended for Grades 10 - 11. The kit includes the Geometry Kit plus some small, colored wooden beads for simulating nuclei or small atoms; and plastic tubes for exploring the basic structures of crystals, elements, and organic chemical bondings.
