Multiple Purpose Magnets
By desire2inspir

Clip to ScrapBook   
Like others have mentioned I used a magnetic white board which I placed and hung in our math center...it allowed us to review graphing for our math center...students created different questions based on the lunch graph each
morning and for center rotations.

For magnets I went to a craft store and purchased a classroom set of those thin wooden cutouts (for mine I got the little gingerbread person type shape) colored them about 7 different colors with sharpy and then put small mini white labels on them with student names. Then I cut a small piece of magnetic tape to adhere to the back of each. I've
reused them for years and they still look great.
(I colored them different colors because it allowed us to create more graphing questions)

You could probably find something for your agent theme at a craft store or party store and easily turn it into a magnet with magnetic tape:) One idea might be to order small magnifying glasses from oriental trading.
