Power of Two Cube

This particular lesson is in the sensorial area of the primary classroom. The power of Two cube also known as the Monomial Cube is one of a variety of ways, we combine sensorial with mathematics. For the younger child we use this lesson as a stacker, learning how to match colors. As the child matures and grasps mathematical understanding, we use this as a visual aid to explain exponentiation.

Mathematically this cube represents expression 2 (for this cube n is an integer from

1 to 5.”

The Joy of Practical Life

and Sensorial

Our purple bow young lady is combining her lacing skills while practicing her geometric shapes. The lacing is in preparation of learning to tie shoes.
