This learning object is particularly useful when educating younger students, prep - grade 1. When teaching younger students it can be quite difficult to find things that will engage them and hold their interest. This activity would work well when learning about maths, and adding on. This object is a practice object as students are able to use trial and error to see f they have placed the numbers in the correct order.
Using this object to engage students is just one of the advantages of using this object to assist teaching instead of the traditional way of teaching. It is a lot more visual and interactive for students as opposed to just using a pen and paper to record their answers onto a work sheet. By using train carriages it is making the concept of maths more real as many students would already have an understanding of what a train is. This helps them to see how maths would be relevant outside of the classroom if you ever wanted to count train carriages. The sounds and noises of the train will also help to engage the younger students as these are things that they react to.
