Solving a Puzzle  –

Small, multiage groups meet for morning numeracy time with engaging, hands on tasks such as the Osmo shown here. Brant-Argyle Parent Council purchased the tool for our school this winter and students (and teachers!) have been entranced by the puzzles that develop visual-spatial abilities, nonverbal reasoning, and fine motor skills. The technology unites an iPad to physical objects and is one of the many ways our teachers are bringing numeracy, puzzles, play, and collaboration into the multilevel classroom.
