Fantastic resource!
November 10, 2023 - By Karen Bondfrom Prescott, AZ
There's something about over-sized, magnetic manipulatives which works so well with kids, and this resource is no different! Good quality, perfect size.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great for counting and math
August 17, 2021 - By Rekenrekfrom Columbus, ohio
This product is large and easy to see from students around the carpet/classroom. Product is well made with wooden beads. My only suggestion for improving this product is to make the magnetic backing stronger.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Sturdy, Gigantic, and Magnetic
April 05, 2019 - By Meghan Herrmannfrom Port Byron, IL
This is thing is AWESOME! It is huge, very sturdy and well built, and best of all, it is magnetic. My kids really love being able to manipulate the giant beads (much more than their individual ones).
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Great whole group learning tool!
March 14, 2018 - By NYKinderTeacherfrom New York
The magnetic rekenrek is fantastic for whole group learning. Students can manipulate it and the rest of the class can easily see it. It is very sturdy. Magnets are strong.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Magnetic rekenrek
November 25, 2017 - By RileyRoofrom Marshalltown, IA
This product is big enough to use in front of the whole class. The magnet strips on the back are not very strong so I had to add some of my own. It sticks to my magnetic easel which sits at an angle. However it will not stick to my magnetic whiteboard. It slides to the bottom. It must have something to do with the angle. So I use it when I am teaching smaller groups.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

It doesn't work consistently on my magnetic whiteboard. I'm not sure if it's my whiteboard or the magnets on the back of this rekenrek. It's still nicely made and big enough for my kids to see so I really like that aspect of it.
Yes, I would recommend this product.

Perfect
November 25, 2016 - By amfmspencerfrom Waterville, ME
I love everything about this rack. It's sturdy and big enough to be visible to the whole class, and it's magnetic!! I use it every day with kindergarteners to model concepts and skills they are also practicing using a virtual math rack manipulative in a math video game context.
