My Project

My students need hands-on, fun activities to experiment with magnets. All of the items in this project will enhance their learning with magnets and animals. We love hands-on learning where the students get to manipulate objects and have fun learning.

Magnet tiles provide an engaging tool to incorporate educational play into the classroom.

Play is a vital part of the development of our youngest learners. At the age of five and six, students are eager to use their imaginations to build and represent their thoughts. With this tool, students can use their imagination to build structures and diverse characters with their peers. Magnet tiles teaches students the social and emotional aspects of sharing, solving problems, and appreciating others’ work.
