Hi all,
Has anyone seen these huge Montessori binomial/trinomial
cubes in your training? I came across them from a german training
program. They could be d.i.y. project with craft wood or card board
and painted. I thought they'd be a great intro for toddlers.
I also saw a larger than usual homemade set at
http://donnamarie.wordpress.com/2007/06/25/making-a-binomial-and-trinomial-cube/ with instructions (ratios).
I love all of Montessori's cubes...one of these days
I'll own all the powers of the binomial! So beautiful.
I will post up the pictures just to enjoy along with a
link list of resources.
