This fifth-grade edition of Smart Sparks takes the magnetic puzzle idea up a level. A box of 112 magnets, a writing screen and a marker lets kids work through puzzles at their own pace. It was designed by teachers as a companion to fifth-grade lessons.

112 magnets and magnetic boards make up the puzzle pieces
Detachable writing screen with a dry-erase marker for working things out
50 puzzles touch on logic, spatial reasoning, math and writing
Recommended for ages 10 and up, matched to fifth grade
Storage box keeps the kit together for travel or classroom shelves

How it plays at home

Kids select a puzzle, set the magnets as directed and think through the answer, writing notes on the screen if needed. The tasks stretch several skills at once, so one puzzle might be about patterns and the next about wording. Wipe the screen and the set resets for the next round.

It works as a station for early finishers, an at-home challenge or a screen-free road trip activity. Set it beside the Grade 4 box if you teach a split class. Tip: let two kids tackle a puzzle together and compare strategies afterward.

What buyers say about MindWare Smart Sparks Brainy Puzzles Grade 5

Quoted word for word from verified buyers.

★★☆☆☆

Cards have so many errors

Cards have so many errors. One example shown. 5 bubbles for a 4 letter word. Cards have "solution to puzzle" but the answer and puzzle don't match up. This could be really frustrating for a kid working alone to solve.
