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

Great classroom tool! Review by Amazon buyer.
"Purchased two of these for our third graders. We did a lot of unstructured exploration this year with these. Intooba kits became the most requested collaborative tool in our room. My kids love them and the open- ended possibilities for play, construction and problem solving. I like them for the carefully thought out ratios of the pieces and the ease of use for students. Great product. The play and instruction possibilities are endless. If you are interested in more STEAM opportunities for students, this is a must-have in your toolbox!" |
