Knobless Cylinders - Set of 4

Four sets of 10 cylinders varying in height and/or diameter in each set. Each set is contained in a separate wooden box with the lid painted to match the colour of the cylinders: red, green, yellow, and blue.

The purpose of this material is to develop the child's visual perception of dimension. It also provides experiences in comparison, grading and seriation—indirect preparation for mathematics.

We have Cylinder Pattern Cards (PDF): Set A and Set B for working with this set.
