Puzzles With a Twist of Clever

Help me give my students magnetic mazes to help with fine motor skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Summerfield's classroom raised $251

This project is fully funded

My Project

This project will supply my Pre-K students with a variety of different magnetic maze puzzles. These magnetic puzzles will help my students learn while doing something fun! As kids play, they boost pre-writing skills and are able to practice color recognition, sort objects by color and shape, practice counting and number identification, and to learn the letters of the alphabet. Students will also be able to improve their fine motor skills and eye-hand coordination. These puzzles would be used as an independent activity that I would set out for my students to play with during center time or as an early morning arrival activity.

Puzzles are essential learning tool in preschool and these puzzles will be a great addition to our classroom!

What I love most about these magnetic puzzles is that they are permanently sealed and fully contained so that the pieces can’t go missing! The magnetic puzzles have a wand attached to the board that allows student to manipulate objects inside of the puzzles in order to practice the skill of the puzzle.

Please help my students get some new puzzles! Your contribution will be greatly appreciated and the materials will be used daily! Thank you for your generosity!
