Our students can benefit immensely from these magnetic letters and boards. We do daily small group phonics and spelling instruction and these tools will allow for more efficient instruction. For each student to have their own set of magnetic letters would be a tremendous asset. The students will be able to independently practice the phonics and spelling activities that we are utilizing to sure up their skills. The hands-on manipulation of these letters enhances kinisthetic learning and meets the needs of all learners. Using these materials will allow them to intertwine visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modalities of learning. Thank you!
