The Grow n' Up magnetic numerals were obtained in 2020. numerals (four of each 0-9 with four extra 0s) and symbols were obtained. Like the set from Imagination Learning, this set was assigned Class 2 due to its unnecessary bevel and glossy finish as well as a poor choice of font. Unifix cubes are the colored cubes that connect in one way, and snap cubes are colored cubes that can connect in different ways. Both can be used in many ways to teach many math concepts, such as patterning, place value, and measurement. Snap cubes are one of the most used math manipulatives. They visually demonstrate many number concepts, such as counting, grouping, adding, and taking away. Children love snapping the cubes together to make number “trains.”

Like many other sets, these numbers, letters and symbols come in six classic colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. The Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers have transformed my classroom into a dynamic and interactive learning environment. They have reignited my students' enthusiasm for numbers and counting, providing a solid foundation for their math skills. Witnessing Emma's journey and the overall positive impact on my students' learning experiences has been incredibly rewarding. This set was assigned Class 2 in early 2021, due to it being a suspected spin-off and its poor quality. Cuisenaire rods are brand new to me. I have seen them stashed away in the math supply room, and I have only recently used them in my classroom. They encourage plenty of creative thought and teach a ton of concepts, such as fractions, geometry, and counting. Each size is a different color, which is pretty cool. Cuisenaire rods come in plastic, like these, or wood, like these. I like to encourage students to explore with a bin of rods and see what they come up with. During “free time” or math centers, I will put out a basket containing around 20, 50, or 100 small items depending and ask students to complete a task. The task could be “make groups and count to find out how many objects you have” or something that encourages thinking and problem-solving.Aside from Emma's personal triumph, the magnetic numbers have consistently engaged and captivated the entire class. The bold colors and large size make them highly visible for all students, even from a distance. The jumbo magnets adhere well to our whiteboard, allowing for interactive lessons and group activities. The kids eagerly take turns arranging the numbers, creating their own number sequences and solving simple math problems. When teaching counting or identifying numbers to 100, I use a large 100’s chart and a pointer. We take turns pointing to the numbers as we practice counting by 1’s, 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s. Students use small 100’s charts to point and follow along as we count, or they locate different numbers given orally.

Learning Resources Jumbo Magnetic Numbers (set of 36)

I am a collector, none of those below are for sale. Trades are only available for people I know in real life AND given that I trust you well enough. Class sixes are sill valuable and rare, but not in comparison to class 7 sets. It is also the highest class obtainable by an alphabet set.

Customer reviews

Quality of the numerals are good, however the digit "9" could not stand up despite the set's intention for every numeral to be able to stand up. However this may just be a molding issue. Having actual geometric solids that can be held helps children learn what 3D shapes are and their features. I suggest creating an anchor chart with 3D shapes listed and recording the properties of each together. These large geometic solids would make good models for teacher’s lessons. Give students shapes to hold and feel during lessons. These transparent geometric solids are see-through to help children visualize their features, and they have removable bases so students can compare 2D and 3D shapes. How cool is that? Plus, geometric solids make for great exploration where towers and castles and all sorts of structures can be built. Try these foam ones for a math center.
