Learning Resources Word Building Dominoes

I use this all the time when I’m tutoring young writers. They have different word classes which is great. I just wish there was more of the domino’s - it would be good to have more choice and more ambitious vocab!

These are great! I worried when they arrived as it said color on the front, but Educational Insights were smart enough to write mother instead of mum/mom. I definitely recommend these. Very sturdy and easy to use. Great for grammar to as there is punctuation (including apostrophe s). My daughter is 5, but can do some without help already. We are in lockdown and she doesn't want to write, but is happy to do the tiles.

Colours keep the kids curiosity. Knowing what they mean is one thing and remembering what they mean are another, but my 5 year old has done really well with both. My 4 year old just remembers the verbs and nouns. She is still at nursery and I expect nothing more from her. My 5 year old in in Year 1 and he likes being by himself to make small sentences which is what he has been doing in school. He likes making silly sentences, but the ideas that he has are very and children are encouraged to be imaginative, without the aid of a book to copy from.As a group activity the are made fun by whomever (usually me) is leading the task. We usually spend about 30 mins with them together and I allow my son to use them whenever he feels, but that is usually no more than once a week, as he has so much other stuff to do.What is nice is that he connects all that he learns now at home with something in school and that for me is the point.You need to go on to the product website and print off a an identity list(conjunctions, prepositions, verbs, nouns etc)and it will also contain some activities for you to do with them.We usually make product choices on what we like, so I am glad that the kids like them and know what they are there for....well they have also made a very colourful brick wall too....

I love them ...as do the children I teach. Love they need a capital letter word at the beginning and punctuation at the end. Hours of fun and education. Such a great resource ..will definitely be buying more. Only thing I would have liked would be more of the word is and was as children use those so oftenwhen I had a group of children they needed to wait for the others to finish with it ..but a minor detail.

This is great and really gets their little brains thinking and fun thing to do

The word bricks are well made, however there isn’t a list of words and the bricks are double sided so I have found the product hard to use with my children.

I love the colourful pieces and the size of the words. It could really start up the imagination of children and older learners. I use it for my ESOL adult learners, they love it.

These are not worth the money spent on them you can barley make one sentence. Did not help my son at all

Great for word work for learners of all ages! I created several games out of these (like Boggle) to build fluency for 14 year old students with dyslexia. They were invested because it was like a game/puzzle. I will have these as a part of my teaching kit forever!

SE LO COMPRE A MI HIJA QUE DA CLASES Y LE HA RESULTADO MUY BUENO

As a homeschooling mom of 6, I’m always looking for fun, educational products that keep my kids busy while secretly reinforcing what they’ve learned or need extras help with. My 8 year old son is an extremely insecure reader who gets really discouraged when his 7 year old brother, who reads proficiently and confidentially, “helps” him read. He tells me (and everyone else) that he can’t read even though he can actually read really well when he’s in the right mood and not being forced to do schoolwork so I was looking for ways to get him to read that didn’t seem like school. Initially, these were not what I had planned to order but after the Reading Rods Sentence set became unavailable I decided to give them a try but didn’t have high expectations. So far, these dominoes have been a hit not only with my 8 year old but also with my other kids who range in age from 3-12. They’re versatile and we’ve had fun coming up with different games to play and ways to use them with our homeschool lessons. The words are printed clearly and aren’t too small and the tiles are good quality and durable and have held up well against my destructive boys!My only complaint is the about the storage container the tiles came in. The canister is a lot smaller than I expected and the kids had to dump all the tiles out when they played with them because they couldn’t dig around in it to find the tiles they wanted. I was worried they would lose tiles and also knew they would be more likely to play with them if there was less mess to clean up when they were done. I ended up purchasing a second set of tiles and put both into a plastic shoe box container from the dollar store.Even though these weren’t what I had wanted and I was hesitant about buying them, these dominoes have exceed my expectations! It would be awesome if Educational Insights made sentence builder sets with more difficult words that could be added onto this set but for now, our family will keep coming up with ways to have fun with this set!

Conforme à mes attentes !

Es fehlen 5 Dominos! Im Packet lagen sie alle lose rum.
