I had to do a math activity in school, and I'm looking for the name of the manipulatives. There are 10 pieces. I think they are shaped in hexagons. You would connect the lines to make a shape. You would start with one, two, and three. Then go to one, two, three, and four, and so on. The colors of the lines were red, blue, and yellow. Plz help if you know what they are called!!!

check out especially the polyhedra and crystal building kits on this link, I think this may be what you're talking about if it's not Cuisinaire rods...
