INTOOBA is a MATH/STEM and Engineering Construction Kit, an educational game for kids

Ideal for classroom teachers, home school, summer camps, after-school programs, libraries, and maker-spaces.

What teachers like about the Intooba Math/STEM Manipulative.

The INTOOBA construction kit is an exciting and innovative manipulative building process. It is a valuable learning tool throughout the elementary school years - from Kindergarten through to sixth grade in MATH and STEM/STEAM. As children become used to working with the sets, the questions become progressively more complicated. Additionally, the materials can be used across curriculum subjects in many areas of instruction. There are nine advantages of children constructing with the INTOOBA construction kit:

  1. Enhances MATH and Geometry Skills and Scores
  2. Develops Executive Functioning Skills in children
  3. It allows children to explore two and three-dimensional shapes by themselves. 
  4. INTOOBA promotes spatial awareness, 
  5. Improves hand-eye coordination, and manual dexterity. 
  6. Encourages Creativity and Innovation
  7. Develops rudimentary Engineering skills
  8. Embraces real world problems
  9. The idea-cards are designed to cover many of the Math and STEM Common Core State Standards in a fun and challenging way.
My students are loving Intooba! The enthusiasm was EXUBERANT the day the boxes arrived. "Wow! "Awesome!" "Whoa!"
It was wonderful watching them collaborate on the challenge. Not only were they using mathematical thinking, they were exercising oral language ("how about trying this?" or "what do you think of doing it this way?"). They are also exercising their spatial relations while designing 2D and 3D structures. Not a dull moment in the room. Then the groups did presentations, and when they couldn't meet the goal, they showed where they got stuck. Big discussion. There was 100% focus in these discussions. (Debra Netk

What teachers have said as to why they like the kits

  1. Exercises are designed by Math professionals and classroom teachers with many years experience in the field
  2. Besides geometry, the challenges and exercises can cover most requirements of the math curriculum
  3. Students are enthusiastic and motivated by the exercises
  4. Math is linked to real world problems and solutions through construction
  5. Comes with fully planned exercises
  6. New exercises are continually put online by teachers and the Intooba team
  7. Doing professional development with Intooba is fun
  8. Easy to set up, and put away

Engineering focus kit has challenges such as building an awesome bridge that does not exceed a value of 205 points. See sample exercise for lower elementary (LE) level below:

​
The idea behind the INTOOBA construction kit
​INTOOBA has been designed by a team of math professionals and educators who have many years experience in the field. The idea came about when we realized that there was no real three dimensional math construction kit, a kid learning game for kids which incorporated a math value system in finding solutions to real world problems. At the same time we wanted a  kit that can be used in each grade without having to acquire different components for each year, thereby saving on cost and space. The INTOOBA construction kit is designed to scaffold the students experience whereby the problems get more complex from grade to grade. 

Current research on the advantages and importance of physical manipulatives

​Research shows that students who use manipulatives improve their math skills and scores (National Education Association, 2002). Intooba can also make a good lesson great and gain the enthusiasm of the students. Manipulatives also enrich mathematics discussions and make learning accessible and understandable for students at all levels (Chris Confer; Toby Gordon; Marco Ramirez, 2012).
