3D Geometric Structures

My students need Magna-Tiles, geometric plastic tiles that have magnets built right in, so they stick together from every side.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Rhinehart's classroom raised $346

This project is fully funded

My Students

A typical day in my classroom is very rigorous! My students are very active and enthusiastic learners. They love using "hands-on" materials, so Magna-Tiles would be a perfect learning tool for learning geometry and 3D shapes.

Our inner city, third grade classroom is extremely diverse with 9 countries represented and 7 different languages.

We have a wonderful classroom culture where everyone helps each other to grow in their English and academics. They want to know everything and work extremely hard to be successful.

My Project

The Magna-Tiles will provide students with an engaging, "hands-on" way to explore geometry concepts in the classroom. Students will learn how to take a complex shape apart and look for smaller basic shapes. As students build three dimensional structures like cubes and pyramids they will explore concepts such as symmetry, area & perimeter, and angles.

These materials will provide an opportunity for students to explore shapes and design their own 3-dimensional creations.

Students will be able to have a concrete example of the math skills they are learning in class. Finding area and perimeter is a large part of the 3rd grade Common Core standards and having these hands-on resources will help students make sense of these concepts.
