Follow the fish and find the operation!

by  Magnetic Kids

Description :

The Magnetic Kids team built a game board. On this game board, children not only play but also learn. Specifically, they learn about math and magnets. So, after writing the arithmetic problems from the workbook on cardboard and the answers on paper fish, the Magnetic Kids created the river through which the fish would travel. The goal of the game is for the children to guide the fish to the correct operation within the river. But how are the fish guided to the correct operation? Magnets helped with this, the children attached magnets to small sticks and were thus able to move the fish, which had paperclips attached to them, to the correct position.

Great job the magnetic kids! It is rare to see students have fun while doing math and science and you all just showed us that. Very interactive and imaginative! You all will make great scientists, scholars and teachers.
