I chose the Magna Tiles to help my students with their three-dimensional shapes. My students have a difficult time spatially seeing how three dimensional shapes fold into nets of solids. The tiles allow us to build the shape, and then lay the pieces down to count the faces, edges, and vertices of the shape. My science students will use the circuits to build and test circuits in our electricity unit in science. I plan to use the five sets in small groups to give the students more opportunities to test their circuits. The headphones are for my students who cannot afford headphones to use while listening to the new online lessons with our new science curriculum.
