White and cyan magnetic numbers are in fact quite rare, as not many manufacturers and companies have chosen those colors for their numbers and letters. It is my only set of magnetic numbers to contain those colors.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. Note that Numerals intended as Transdecimal digits that can be turned over to resemble decimal digits fall in the transdecimal category. This set was assigned Class 2 in early 2021, due to it being a suspected spin-off and its poor quality. One of each" refers to one of each letter (A-Z) or decimal digit unless specified (like some of my own designs have transdecimal digits/numerals, or other symbols), as the vast majority of sets are "decimal-centric".

Classes three and four are the "typical" sets of numbers you can find, which they are just "there" and don't stand out in any shape or form. The only difference between the classes are that class four sets tend to have better quality and aesthetics. 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. Students use math manipulatives at their workspace to complete their work. We have math centers set up that incorporate manipulatives to use during their work. I also give students “free time” to grab a bin of math manipulatives to explore on their own or in small groups. This is where some of the most incredible findings happen. I occasionally put a problem on the board for students to complete with a math bin of their choosing. This encourages the “real world” problem solving when they must think of the most appropriate tool and try different ones out through trial and error. Examples of How to Use Math Tools The ELC (Early Learning Center/Centre) magnetic uppercase letters were obtained along the magnetic numerals in early 2021 (which is why this set was obtained). Unlike the numerals, the letters were not styled like the Megcos magnetic letters, instead they are partially based on the "Sassoon" typeface (which is designed for better readability for children). The set comes in the same six colors as the numerals (white, red, orange, yellow, green and cyan). The distribution of letters seem to have two of each letter, and the other 16 letters are randomly assigned. 1 jar (68 letters) have been obtained. Teachers Pay Teachers is another wonderful option for finding math resources, games, centers, and printable manipulatives for your classroom.
