She was among the first women to attend West Point. Now, personal trainer and female veteran Janette Skowron empowers other women to be army strong.
Female veteran Janette Skowron, 47, of Cary, N.C., is the very definition of toughness. The certified personal trainer, mother-of-three and West Point graduate has always approached life�and her health�with true discipline and dedication. For years, Janette has been breaking down barriers. In 1982, at the age of 16, she decided to enroll in the United States Military Academy at West Point during a time when women were largely marginalized at service academies. �I thought it was a great opportunity,� Janette says. �I was a high academic achiever in high school and thought I would enjoy the discipline and leadership of the Army.� When Janette entered West Point, women were still a new presence at the prestigious military academy, which did not open its doors to females until 1976. As a result, female cadets often faced chauvinism and animosity from their male classmates. �Back then, a lot of the men didn�t welcome women,� says Janette. �They made us feel out of place and incompetent. It was very challenging to be there as a woman.� Not only was her gender an issue, but Janette also entered the program with zero athletic ability. �When I arrived at West Point, I was an out-of-shape teenager,� Janette says. �I had never done a push up or run a mile before.� Merely passing the academy�s Candidate Fitness Assessment�a vigorous fitness exam that is one of the requirements for admission�was one of the biggest challenges Janette encountered. �At first, I failed the entrance fitness exam twice!� she says. �But I pushed hard, whipped myself into shape and eventually was able to pass it.� �It was very tough on me,� she adds. �As a woman at West Point, you didn�t want to get noticed, especially not physically.� Ultimately, Janette�s experience at West Point taught her invaluable lessons about perseverance, strength and resilience. During her four years there, she conquered insurmountable obstacles, battled failure and defeat, and shattered the glass ceiling. �I learned a lot about self-discipline. I learned how to handle a lot emotionally. I learned how to be tough-minded,� she says. It also sparked a lifelong commitment to physical fitness. After graduating West Point in 1987, Janette served as a Logistics Officer at Fort Bragg for five years before pursuing a career in management. Even when she wasn�t in the Army, however, Janette still maintained a rigorous fitness regimen. �For the past 25 years since I�ve graduated, I don�t think I�ve taken off more than a week from exercise,� Janette says. �It has become a part of my life.� At age 47, Janette keeps herself in fighting shape. She stays fit through a combination of high-intensity interval training and weight lifting circuits. Always looking to push herself to new limits, the female veteran�s current fitness goal is to beat her personal-best 11:03 plank hold time. �I�m a very competitive person. That�s how I stay motivated,� she says. In addition to physical fitness, Janette has also made healthy eating a top priority. Although she grew up in a household where fresh fruits and vegetables were a rarity, Janette was inspired to completely revamp her diet after watching her father struggle with health problems. �My father died suddenly of a heart attack at age 59 while I was in college,� Janette says. �Watching him eat so unhealthy and die so young made me paranoid about my own health.� Today, Janette enforces healthy eating habits on her family with military-like strictness. �I don�t tolerate unhealthy eating. We eat a lot of vegetables,� Janette says, who has three children ages 18, 17 and 14. �Even when I was dating my husband-to-be, I threw out his deep fryer.� Three years ago, Janette transformed her passion for fitness into a full-time career when she decided to pursue a personal training certification through the National Personal Training Institute. As a personal trainer at the Cary, N.C. Lifetime Fitness Center, she hopes to empower her clients to take control of their health. Surprisingly, despite the fact that she�s a female veteran with an extensive military background, Janette�s approach to training is not all drill-sergeant tactics. She may make clients �drop and give her 20,� but she also brings a softer, more compassionate side to the gym. �I think the most effective way to train is to be a good listener�to coach each person in the way they need to be coached,� Janette says. �There isn�t a lot of sympathy at West Point for personal injuries and physical challenges. When I train clients, I look at every individual differently and assess his or her personal needs. So yes, I can kick anyone�s butt. But my clients need listening and compassion, too.� Throughout her life, Janette has tackled all challenges�from fitness-related goals to major life setbacks�with Army-level strength and tremendous perseverance. But, Janette says, you don�t have to go through the military to attain mental toughness. �If you are not living a great life, then it's time to make some behavior changes,� she says. �Take responsibility and ownership for yourself and seek a health coach. Live a great life!� Brought to you by: Spry Living

Mike Vogel has been tapped to star in CBS' Under the Dome, a drama based on Stephen King's 2009 novel, TVGuide.com has learned.
The serialized drama, which will be produced by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment, is about a small New England town that becomes sealed off from the world by an oversized transparent dome. The show will follow the citizens' struggle to survive as they try to learn more about the dome and how to get rid of it.

Vogel, whose credits include Pan Am, Cloverfield and the upcoming A&E series Bates Motel, joins a cast that includes Britt Robertson, Natalie Martinez, Aisha Hinds, Alex Koch, Colin Ford, Nicholas Strong and Jolene Purdy.
In November, CBS granted a straight-to-series order of 13 episodes of the sci-fi series. Niels Arden Oplev, who directed the Swedish version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, will helm the first episode. King, Neal Baer, Justin Falvey, Darryl Frank and Stacey Snider join Lost's Brian K. Vaughan, who wrote the adaptation, as executive producers.

U.S. Individual Capital Gains Tax Rates High
A new report by Ernst & Young LLP, commissioned by the American Council for Capital Formation, compares individual long-term capital gains taxes among 25 major economies of the world as well as major trading partners of the U.S. The U.S. capital gains tax rate compares unfavorably with that of many other major economies (see Figure 1). More than half of the countries surveyed have individual capital gains tax rates lower than that of the U.S.
A low capital gains tax rate has an important role to play in fostering economic growth. Since the historic reduction in capital gains taxes initiated in 1978 by the late Congressman Bill Steiger, lowering taxes on capital gains has been a crucial element in promoting the entrepreneurial drive on which the U.S. economy thrives.
Entrepreneurs are a major force for technological breakthroughs, new start-up companies, and the creation of high paying jobs. Many today believe that the '78 cut in capital gains tax rates not only helped make Silicon Valley the center of technological breakthroughs but has also had a strong, positive, and lasting impact on overall investment, economic growth and job creation in the U.S. The 2003 capital gains tax cuts have also been a boon to the U.S. economy.
Extension of the 15% rate is crucial to maintaining the U.S. competitive edge against its major trading partners. (For more details on international capital gains tax rates, please refer to Table in the pdf of the report)Download Full Report

By now, we're all well familiar with the Marchesa aesthetic - all girly details, all the time. The brand isn't girly in a young, innocent way, though; instead, Marchesa goes for full-on luxury of the highest order, including all the rhinestones, Swarovski crystals and pale exotics leathers that you can possibly stand. If you ever wanted to be a princess when you were growing up, Marchesa is prepared to make your dreams come true.
That goes doubly for the brand's handbags, which are little confectionary balls of glitz and sparkle. Neiman Marcus recently began selling the collection online, which means that now any time I'm feeling blue, I can pop in to get my sparkle fix and elevate my mood. Or, you know, I can plan my (totally imaginary, not-even-dating-anyone) wedding in my head. Either one. Check out the full collection in our slideshow below or skip straight to shopping via Neiman Marcus.

Detailed Description:
This study will evaluate whether a dietary supplement, coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), will improve muscle symptoms, such as muscle aches, pains, cramps, and/or weakness, which are experienced by some individuals who use statin medications.
Side Effects of Statins
Dietary Supplement: Coenzyme Q10

Further study details as provided by Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Muscle symptoms [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Continued statin use [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
- Muscle strength [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
- Disability [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
- Adverse effects [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|December 2009
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|December 2016
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|October 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
|Active Comparator: Coenzyme Q10
Dietary Supplement: Coenzyme Q10
300 mg of CoQ10 (three 100 mg chewable tablets) 2 times daily for 4 weeks
|Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Other: Placebo
Placebo (three chewable tablets) 2 times daily for 4 weeks
Detailed Description:
This study will recruit individuals who have had muscle symptoms while using a statin. During the first part of the study, volunteers will be given a statin medication to see if their muscle symptoms return. Those who experience muscle symptoms on this statin rechallenge will be invited to continue in the second part of the trial, in which participants will be randomly assigned to receive either CoQ10 or a placebo (sugar pill) to take with statin medication. We hypothesize that those who receive CoQ10 will experience an improvement in their muscle symptoms compared to those who receive placebo, and, secondarily, that those who receive CoQ10 will be more likely to continue taking the statin medication.

Liberty Media Corp. announced this week that it had made a proposal to acquire Barnes & Noble for $17 per share in cash. In total, the company hopes to control 70% of B&N, a major book retail in the U.S. that has been attempting to enter the market of electronic books, for around $1 billion.
Liberty's proposal, which contemplates that the acquisition will be structured as a merger, is subject to various conditions, including satisfactory financing and the participation of founding chairman Leonard Riggio, both in terms of his continuing equity ownership and his continuing role in management. Liberty's equity ownership, which would be attributed to the Liberty Capital group, is expected to be approximately 70% of Barnes & Noble. Liberty expects that its cash contribution toward the purchase price, depending on the amount of financing that can be obtained, will be in the range of $500 million.
Barnes & Noble is the established leader in bookselling and is at the forefront of the transition to digital, with a management team that has demonstrated expertise in operations and positioned the company for growth in a dynamic marketplace, according to Liberty Media. Unfortunately, B&N's Nook e-book reader is substantially less successful than Amazon's Kindle.
The acquisition of B&N by a major media company will mark a renewed interest for books in general. It is highly likely that Liberty will strengthen B&N's digital strategy.

Actually there's an app for that. It's called "Days Until". I believe it's free at iTunes' App Store.
I'll likely end up working 6-18 months after the eligibility date in order to reinforce the cash reserves. And to get a new bike. And a car. And...
It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it.
Just be careful and don't put too much trust any financial advisers...you are their beast of burden. 3.5% is a reasonable estimate for a long term rate of return, if you take on some risk (i.e., stock heavy portfolio).
If you're single, a new, wealthier spouse is a tried and true solution, that might not be too painful.
Seriously, good luck. We all fear what you're going through.

I can barely afford the spouse I have now. Replacing her would be prohibitive, and possibly hazardous.If you're single, a new, wealthier spouse is a tried and true solution, that might not be too painful.
Thanks. I'm actually lucky...some of my co-workers had the rug yanked out just days before they walked out the door. That, in my opinion, was criminal. At least I have some time to adjust and recover.Seriously, good luck. We all fear what you're going through.
There's always someone better off, and there's always someone in worse shape. You just have to do the best you can with the cards you are dealt.
Thanks for your good wishes.

As we get older we sometimes begin to doubt our ability to "make a difference" in the world.
It is at these times that our hopes are boosted by the remarkable achievements of other "seniors" who have found the courage to take on challenges that would make many of us wither.
Scooter Trash is such a person:
"I've often been asked, 'What do you do now that you're retired?'
Well...I'm fortunate to have a chemical engineering background and one of the things I enjoy most is converting beer, wine and whisky into urine.
It's rewarding, uplifting, satisfying and fulfilling. I do it every day and I really enjoy it."
Scooter should be an inspiration to us all.
1996 Harley Springer, 2011 R1200RT
When you find a big kettle of crazy, it?s best not to stir it.
That sounds like a good plan to me.
I'll think take an early retirement.
To the Beer Store!!
It's a tough job but somebody's gotta do it.
I did finally decide to retire. My official retirement date is April 11th, but I had so much vacation time on the books, not being able to take much time off for years that I have been home for 6 weeks using accruals.
I am 63, everything is paid off, the boss is a jerk, and I have a decent pension and social security will start soon. Part of the reason to retire is because I am one of the lucky ones who can. We also have savings from living a modest lifestyle.
So far I've kept busy and I am making the transition to retired life more quickly than I thought I would. I may get a new bike, but I'll do a long road trip this spring to make sure I can handle it physically before I commit to a new bike. Besides, the old one runs fine.
I might have worked another year, but I think my decision was a good one. I see a lot of people retiring at 55, which seems a bit young, but some think I am retiring too soon at age 63, so who knows? Time will tell.
I have a project I'm working on to challenge me and keep me busy, and there are others available if I should lose interest in this one.
It's snowing right now, but warmer weather is coming and I can finally go on any ride I want, go to any rally or part of the country and hopefully that works out and I'll see some of you in my travels!

Stock Futures Waver as Investors Brace for QE Tapering
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Stock futures were wavering Wednesday as investors around the world debated the possibility of hints that the Federal Reserve could soon scale back its $85 billion a month bond-buying stimulus program in the latest release of its minutes amid some better economic data, particularly robust job gains in the cyclical sectors of the economy.
Futures for the S&P 500 were unchanged, or 1.02 points below fair value, to 1,645.5. Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average were rising 12 points, or 4.66 points above fair value, to 15,234. Futures for the Nasdaq were up 1 point, or 2.22 points below fair value, to 2,975.25.
Before the market open, the Mortgage Bankers Association said that mortgage application activity continued to drop in the wake of rising interest rates amid fears of less Fed support during the week ending July 5. The Market Composite Index decreased by 4% on a seasonally adjusted basis from one week earlier.

The most important economic release so far this week will occur at 2 p.m., EDT, when the Federal Open Market Committee will issue the minutes from its June 18 to 19 meeting. Investors are expected to parse the release for any clues into the sentiment of Fed voting members regarding the tapering of stimulus and respond accordingly.

Toyota to Finally Get Onboard With Direct Injection, Turbocharging to Boost Efficiency
Brandon Hill
October 3, 2012 12:38 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Toyota Camry SE
Toyota is finally going to catch up to the competition
Toyota is known for producing boring family sedans and SUVs that appeal to a large audience. The company is also known for its fuel efficient
Prius family of hybrid vehicles
. Vehicles like the
Prius/Prius c
manage to achieve 50mpg on the highway thanks to a fuel-sipping gasoline engine backed with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and an electric motor/battery.
Toyota has largely ignored making significant advances in its traditional gasoline engine/powertrain department; with efficient transmission/engine offerings lagging the competition (the Toyota Corolla still uses a 4-speed automatic transmission when the competition has moved to 6-speed units and CVTs).
However, no longer will its traditional vehicles take a backseat to its hybrids according to Takeshi Uchiyamada, Toyota's product development chief. "By 2015, through improvement in the engine and powertrain alone, we aim to achieve a fuel-efficiency improvement of 10 percent to 20 percent on the models adopting the improvements," said Uchiyamada.
The Toyota Corolla still uses an archaic four-speed automatic transmission and lags behind the competition in fuel economy
Competitors like Ford have already embraced direct injection and turbocharging across much of the produce range (see
), and Toyota is following suit. Toyota plans to introduce a direct injection version of its 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine (this new engine will first see duty in hybrid models). The engine will also find its way into vehicles like the Camry, RAV4, and Venza.
In addition, Toyota will also introduce a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine that will likely take the place of the 3.5-liter V6 currently found in midsize Toyota sedans and crossovers.
Toyota is also looking to add 6- and 8-speed automatic transmission to its vehicles. This should help vehicles like that aforementioned Corolla with its archaic transmission boost fuel efficiency ratings. The company will also add CVTs to more of its models, a move that has long been championed by Nissan. Nissan provides CVTs in everything from its
tiny Versa subcompact
to the large Pathfinder crossover.
All of these moves largely see Toyota playing catch-up with the rest of the automotive industry. Toyota has for too long placed all of its fuel efficiency eggs in the hybrid basket, while neglecting its bread and butter vehicles. With the competition now fiercer than ever, it now looks as though Toyota has finally realized that not everyone wants to purchase a hybrid in order to get increased fuel efficiency.
"The whole principle [of censorship] is wrong. It's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because the baby can't have steak." -- Robert Heinlein

More:Trip Page | Press Statement -- Holding the Qadhafi Government Accountable
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton travels to Geneva, Switzerland on February 27 to 28. While in Geneva, she will hold consultations with her counterparts on the situation in Libya, and events and trends in the broader Middle East. She will also address the high-level segment of the 16th session of the United Nations Human Rights Council.
Before departing for Geneva, Secretary Clinton spoke with members of the press. The Secretary said, "Let me start by saying as strongly as I can that the United States and the American people support the aspirations and rights of the Libyan people. They are clearly sending as strong a message as they are capable of doing that it is time for Qadhafi to go. We think he must go as soon as possible without further bloodshed and violence.
"We are also very conscious of the actions that have been taken against the Libyan people by the Qadhafi regime. And the Security Council resolution passed unanimously yesterday makes clear there will be accountability for crimes against humanity and war crimes and other atrocities that are being perpetrated against the Libyan people, including a referral to the International Criminal Court. And I want to underscore this unanimous message from the Security Council to those who are around Qadhafi that you will be held accountable for the actions that are being taken and have been taken against your own people.
"The Security Council resolution yesterday was part of a concerted effort that the United States has been lining up and implementing over the last days, both for unilateral and multilateral action. And we will continue to pursue steps aggressively that we believe will make a difference. Obviously, the Security Council resolution, which was passed in record time and included countries that are often reluctant to empower the international community to take such actions, sends a strong, unmistakable signal. The specifics that go to targeted sanctions and arms embargo and other measures are exactly what we have been looking toward and wanting to achieve in this period.
"It also opens the door for humanitarian relief, which is going to be essential -- the numbers of people fleeing across the borders, particularly into Tunisia and Egypt, where those two countries are facing huge humanitarian demands, plus internally displaced people.
"There's also a strong message in the Security Council resolution to countries in the region: You must stop mercenaries, you must stop those who may be going to Libya either at the behest or opportunistically to engage in violence or other criminal acts. And we will be working closely with those neighboring countries to ensure that they do so.
"This change that is sweeping across the region is coming from inside societies. It is not coming from the outside. But each country is different, and each country must deal with the demands of their own people and pursue paths that will lead toward change.
"The United States supports those who are pursuing the path of reform. In particular, His Majesty King Hamad of Bahrain and His Majesty King Abdullah of Jordan are engaged in meaningful outreach and efforts to try to bring about the change that will be in line with the needs of the people of their countries. So this is a period of great historical challenge and opportunity, and the United States will be pursuing actions and policies that we believe are in the best interests of the United States and also in the best interests of the region and the world."
Read the full transcript of the Secretary's briefing here, and follow her trip to Geneva here.
Joseph M. in Oregon writes:
Madam Secretary,
I am extremely proud of the position and initiative that the U.S. Department of State has taken in addressing the recent uprisings in the Middle-East. As in the recent revolts occurring in Tunisia and Egypt, Libya is a teachable moment for U.S. Foreign Policy in the region. I completely agree, it would rather naive and misinformed in categorizing each country in the same way, the tribal and structural dynamics for each Arab nation, is very different and must be analyzed individually. That said, "Good luck in Geneva Madam Secretary" Very pleased in hearing Ambassador Rice and the UN speaking with one voice today in condemning the regime devised "crimes against humanity" and ongoing violence occurring in Libya. Unfortunately, the UN and U.S. concerted sanctions, will not prevent further violence and mass killings occurring by the hour in Tripoli and in Western Libya. The international community needs to react in a more force-able manner. We reacted after the horrific mass killings in Rwanda, Bosnia-Herzegovina and in Darfur, Sudan and let's not repeat a slow response which historically resulted in thousands more being killed and large scale crimes against humanity and inhumane atrocities occurring during the 1990's. The U.S., EU and UN needs to act immediately, with respect to intervening in Libya, the level of violence is horrifying. I wholeheartedly agree with pursuing indictments by the ICC in the Hague and moving forward with prosecuting the culprits for these "Crimes Against Humanity". Western nations should be very concerned in supporting the democratic movements that have taken hold in Northern Africa and in the Arab nations recently impacting multiple nations. The United States has a strategic interest and a moral obligation to react in a proactive manner. We have a unfettered commitment in supporting democratic reforms as these circumstances unfold and not stand by idling as the people's movements in each country develops, regardless if those populations decide and vote for a parliamentary government that may include Islamic representation. We want to be on the right side of democracy and freedom, as revolutionary changes are occurring throughout the region.
Freedom to choose and assemble peacefully, engaging in political change are fundamental democratic principles. Whether in Egypt, Libya or in Yemen, our role is to support the raise of democratic change and to support the people's wishes for each country individually. It is not the business of the U.S. or of the international community to decide in each individual country, what a future government may look like or is likely to emerge--the will of the people should be represented and respected by achieving democratic reforms. I personally am very pleased in witnessing the historical significance of the collapsing of decades of authoritarian and autocratic ruling, experienced by many Arab nations oppressing their people during my lifetime.
That said, as we well know, the reports and circumstances coming from Libya are extremely alarming to the entire international community. Reports out of Eastern Libya are becoming even more disturbing, the level of violence, shootings and large-scale human rights violations are escalating greatly, especially in and around Tripoli.
The sign held by one demonstrator from Tripoli reads: "Benghazi We Are With You", Where is the joint effort needed by the UN and international community in the form of crisis intervention?---"Game Over Qaddafi!"
The U.S. and the EU needs to address this monumental humanitarian disaster occurring in Libya, immediately at the scheduled conference in Geneva. Qaddafi and his regime's brutal mercenary thugs responsible for the mass killings need to be held accountable, indicted by the International War Tribunal (ICC), in stating the least.
Palgye in South Korea writes:
I agrees all kind of travel`s aim...
Equipped to think that everything is ready. However, corruption in government, not simply a matter of the Libyan interior, would have been associated closely with Western countries, would go a long report? Short report, only the thought of oil should I do? Little by little, to make concessions, while -
At a minimum, the Italian and European governments to show their good side so I think that will be hard. But, to win the U.S. lead is fully persuaded that he would like Islam to the people. Importantly, Libya continues to produce oil, to satisfy New York's stock market, to stabilize the economy, providing many opportunities to think.
I hate the dictatorship. Vested interests and large corporations in Korea right now and they associated with Pariakapitalismus by the dictatorship by those who think that many are experiencing the side effects. Political, economic and social system they want to own, away from the real situation on the border, forcing the type of law they want, while trying to create the world continues to rage, and you do not want this effort to a few people, even though a small number of people, certain forces are reduced to a means of expressing desire to go because the state,,,,
In the northern African country had a strong influence, and ability to perform such a role will the country think. Match it to perform the role, while giving pride to the people of the policy is feasible. Small case, to prevent desertification of northern Africa to implement policies and how solar power, etc. The test bed .... But now the government has information that everyone knows is needed.
I think that will prevent massive bloodshed. In the past, criticism and punishment is thought to be committed to the people of Libya. To punish or to forgive, although I think they must carry the past go. And the problem is, most of them tolerated .....
Everyone knows the story was long.
PS: I want to go to Geneva ...
If you want to kill Gaddafi, is thought to kill him. Leaders of the past was used in the traditional way, through the media in the right picture?
and, "Russia's government about the terrorist attacks committed in the Moscow airport on an adequate and accurate investigation certainly know how to think."
Did not win the lottery, the U.S. is going to be hard I think. I think you should stop trying to make money. South Korea's political forces to meet me in the media behaviors and actions that are quite different. In the past, trying to guard me, I used to cellula phones in the National Assembly, LG telecom and call themselves the indulgence President, through the media, I believe that is. And chinhasipnikka SK? SK also seen here, unlike in the media, when I tried around us, ignoring heard ....?
A shameful story, but the top 17 conglomerates in Korea, but their approach, the results still, am ashamed. Some local governments prevent access itself went,,,,

Older Preschooler and K Giant Magnetics
By www.fuggsandfoach.com
from Boston, MA
Perfect for demonstration, proportionately sized pieces are 3 times the length of standard pattern blocks on each side. Largest piece (hexagon) measures 6".Includes 47 magnetic pieces plus activity guide. My 4 year-old son and I play with these all the time. We put them on a magnetic white board at his level, so he plays with them all the time. He uses white board markers on them sometimes, but the marker rubs right off. The only thing I wish I had known is how thin they are. It's made of magnetic sheets and covered with a sticker. They are durable, but I wish they were easier for my son's little hands to remove from the board. However, he doesn't seem to be frustrated by how thin they are, so it's minor.These are great pattern blocks and very inexpensive. I love the idea of having magnetic pattern blocks! They are a great math manipulative for my preschool head start classroom ,Reinforce shape recognition, symmetry, congruency, fractions, area and more! Perfect for demonstration, proportionately sized pieces are 3 times the length of standard pattern blocks on each side—and 9 times greater in total area! The one thing I do wish this set had was circles squares and rectangles. I do feel it is a set that is best for older preschoolers once they have learned their basic shapes.
Perfect for Multiple Children
By Becky
from NC
I received this product to review in our home. We used the product in so many ways. I love how it helps me demonstrate math concepts to multiple children, including my own! It is open-ended and great for multiple ages. It's also a perfect match for the smaller pattern blocks.
Spans many ages & Versatile
By theteacherswife
from Iowa
These are great and you get plenty of shapes! You can use them for SO many different lessons such as fractions, shapes, area, etc. Love the bright colors which makes them great even in preschool. If you dont have a magnetic board you can use a cookie sheet or lay them on a desk for centers! I received these to review and I know that our school will have these for years as they are very durable.
Great for geometry vocabulary!
By The OC Blog
from Ohio
I reviewed this product on The Organized Classroom Blog and when you are teaching basic geometric vocabulary these could be so helpful! I don't know how many times I have tried to draw a decent looking hexagon on the whiteboard so I could label the vertices and sides and how easy this would have been instead - lol! They are all backed with magnet material, so they are great for a math center where you have placed the blocks and some cookie trays/sheets!Great resource for the classroom for student and teacher use!
