Back when I was teaching, I would order from Discount School Supply on a regular basis (you know how teachers are always using their own money to buy supplies)! They have great prices and tons of the school-ishy stuff that I love.
We recently had the opportunity to try out the Five Senses magnetic board from Discount School Supply Excellerations™ line of products. I actually ended up getting this in time for our Five Senses preschool unit that we did just a few weeks ago, and my youngest was excited to test it out!
I loved that we were able to do sorting activities with the pieces AND that it was magnetic. My daughter ended up playing with it off and on for several days. Even my eight-year-old (who is against doing any projects lately) wanted to use it, too!
Please note that this is a large set, and it would be perfect for a classroom setting or a home preschool group. It includes:
- 4 illustrated placemats (non-magnetic)
- Bilingual activity guide
- 2-sided magnetic board (12″H x 18″W)
- 50 die-cut foam magnets depicting assorted objects, labeled in English and Spanish
The Excellerations products are awesome and pretty inexpensive as far as school supplies go. For instance, this set of Excellerations Alphabet Bean Bags is less than $1 a piece.
I’m also a fan of the math manipulatives. You can do all kinds of measurement and patterning and sorting with these Excellerations Plastic Links.
There are so many more, and they are definitely worth checking out if you are a teacher or even a homeschooler.
I’m excited to get to give away an Excellerations My 5 Senses Magnet Activity Set! To enter to win, simply complete the tasks in the Giveaway Tools box below! Please let your teacher friends know about it, too!
