## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many kids can use this at once, if they were all making the same letter at the same time?**
A: I bought 2 buckets thinking I would be able to use it in my kindergarten class. I was only able to have 8 children at a time making letters. There at not enough of the orange pieces (lines or curves) and not enough small blue curves but out of 2 buckets I have one whole bucket full of the long blue lines and that was after I gave 20 children 4 each! This was such a disappointment, it would have worked for a class if they had more of certain ones and way less of the blue lines.

**Q: What is the activity guide? - I did not get one.**
A: The guide is available for download on our site. Please visit us on our Learning Resources site under the “contact us” page with any other questions you may have.

**Q: I just bought these and they good. I'm wondering how to make the letter h though? Do you use a straight and an upside-down u shape? Looks funny.**
A: Hi there, what a great question! There are multiple arch shapes you can use to build the letter "h" - would love to see what you create :)

**Q: What are the approximate sizes of the magnets?**
A: Very small.  The longest big line is about 2 inches long. and the big curve is that tall as well. They are a nice size to use with an 8 x 10 magnetic white board.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Satisfied
*by Z***L on November 20, 2019*

These are exactly what I expected from the picture. Just what I was looking for to help my dyslexic 6y.o. with building letters, words and numbers. We have the bigger set of Learning resources letter construction too. These ones are perfect for building out larger words. I do wish they came with instructions on how to build each letter correctly but dyslexics are very creative so I’m not sure he’d even reference it! Quality is good and they stick to our white board with no issue. They are a bit expensive for what they are but worth it for being the only thing out there in the market right now.
