My students were thrilled to learn that we would be getting more blocks when our project was fully funded. Only to be slightly disappointed when the achromatic (black, white, and gray) sets sold out. They were really looking forward to building a whole family of pandas! So, I will definitely submit another project to add more achromatic blocks next year. \r\n\r\nI am truly amazed at the teamwork and collaboration that my students exhibit when they build with Magnetic Blocks.
