The asker says this is from a Montessori school.
"Gaveta de triángulos" gets two hits, both from Montessori schools in Puerto Rico. One has a picture, halfway down the page. It's just a tray of plastic or cardboard triangles for kids to play with and learn about this shape.

It's translated on that page as "triangles tray" - I suspect it's called a "gaveta", or "drawer", because the trays fit inside a cabinet.
