US Grade 4 - 6
Students who are visual/spatial learners would love this hands-on class! There are puzzles that involve Roman numerals, so please make sure that your learner knows them before class. Those that love a challenge will also thrive. Students will make designs with toothpicks and then remove some to make a new design by listening to the instructions. You will need access to toothpicks, a flat surface and your best problem solving. If time permits, students could make up puzzles of their own or could do so after class to astonish their friends and family members. Example instructions: Remove 8 toothpicks to get 2 triangles.
Learning Goals
Students will be using higher level visual/spatial thinking as they solve problems using toothpicks. Hands on class.
Other Details
Supply List
At least 25 toothpicks and a flat surface. It would be suggested to have students take this class on a tablet or phone so that they can move it to show their designs as we progress.
