About my class

These 3 items that I am asking for will be essential in my class! The first two, Magna-Tiles and 3-D geometric shapes, are for our unit on 3D shapes. The best way for a child to understand these shapes is to get their hands on them. For students in kindergarten, tactile learning is essential to their learning process. Touching and building 3D shapes will further their understanding in this unit. The Magna-Tiles will also be great when we explore engineering later in the year, building bridges and buildings. All three resources will allow students to engage in tactile learning and furthering their understandings in math, engineering, and writing. The word building blocks will allow students to build words before the writing process. Students need opportunities to explore spelling outside of paper and pencil, seeing how letters work together to form words. I will use this resource weekly in my literacy centers.
