My students will use Magna-Tiles to enhance their social skills and vocabulary. My students have "choice time" (play time) a few times a week. This time is particularly important in a class with English Language Learners because students are using and learning new vocabulary words. The words that they are using are important because they are not just academic words that I am teaching them, they are words that they could use daily. Magna-Tiles will encourage my students to use their imagination, and use academic and non-academic language. When my students have the opportunity to build, they build things such as a zoo, mall, parking garage, etc. When I see them building these things, I use these opportunities to share new words with them that relate to what they are building. The Magna-Tiles will also encourage my students to share and work together.
