My Project

My students are so creative and love to build with Magna-Tiles each day during our structured play time. This year I have 27 students, this is more than I have ever had since having Magna-Tiles, and I just don't have enough to go around.

Magna-Tiles are an amazing resource for kids to use their creativity as well as design skills.

I have seen so many great structures but they are always running out and get upset that they can't build bigger. They would be so excited to have more to build with.

While the students are building, I can ask them to tell me the shape names or ask how many shapes did they build with? We have also used the Magna-Tiles to sort by color and shape. You can never have too many Magna-Tiles but it is very clear that it is possible not to have enough.
