Having a new manipulative to use while in the Research Lab adds to the enjoyment of learning. We have used the Farm Animal Magna-tiles during our Farm to Table unit of our curriculum. Once the teachers saw how engaged the students were in using them, they asked right away to check them out to use in their classrooms. And they are using them, not just for the animal units, but to help build student understanding of 3-D shapes. Coming up in March and April we will get to use our other Magna-tiles animal habitats. We can't wait to see how our students create with them.\r\n\r\nAgain a HUGE THANK YOU for making our project come to life.
