The building cubes have quickly become one of the most loved materials in our classroom. My students use them during STEM and free-build time, and it has been amazing to watch their creativity and problem-solving grow.

For many of my students, hands-on building is where they shine, and these cubes give them the perfect opportunity to explore and learn through play.\r\n\r\nThe Teachers Pay Teachers gift card has also made a huge impact. It has allowed me to choose and customize lessons that meet my students exactly where they are.
