- Counting: The child can count the number of Magnatiles used in their structure.
- Shapes: The child can identify and name the shapes of the Magnatiles used in their structure.
- Patterning: The child can create patterns using different colored Magnatiles.
- Spatial reasoning: The child can manipulate the Magnatiles to fit together and create a stable structure.
- Measurement: The child can compare the size of different Magnatiles and use them to measure the length or height of their structure.
For continued development, encourage the child to:
- Create more complex structures using a variety of shapes and colors.
- Experiment with different ways to connect the Magnatiles to create different angles and shapes.
- Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the length and height of their structures more accurately.
- Challenge themselves to create structures with a specific number of Magnatiles or using only certain shapes.
