2. Virtual manipulatives for mathematics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_manipulatives_for...

   Base Ten blocks for math. Virtual manipulatives for mathematics are digital representations of mathematics manipulatives based on the physical manipulatives used in classrooms. [1] They are generally used to introduce mathematical concepts using visuals and are used for teaching students new topics that may be more difficult to explain in other ...

3. Manipulative (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulative_(mathematics...

   Mathematical manipulatives play a key role in young children's mathematics understanding and development. These concrete objects facilitate children's understanding of important math concepts, then later help them link these ideas to representations and abstract ideas.

4. Pattern Blocks - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_blocks

   Pattern Blocks. Pattern Blocks are a set of mathematical manipulatives developed in the 1960s. The six shapes are both a play resource and a tool for learning in mathematics, which serve to develop spatial reasoning skills that are fundamental to the learning of mathematics. Among other things, they allow children to see how shapes can be ...

   This free software had an earlier incarnation, Macsyma. Developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the 1960s, it was maintained by William Schelter from 1982 to 2001. In 1998, Schelter obtained permission to release Maxima as open-source software under the GNU General Public license and the source code was released later that year.

6. Base ten blocks - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_ten_blocks

   Base ten blocks are popular in primary-school mathematics instruction, especially with topics that students struggle with such as multiplication. They are used by teachers to model concepts, as well as by students to reinforce their own understanding. Physically manipulating objects is an important technique used in learning basic mathematic ...

7. Cuisenaire rods - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisenaire_rods

   Cuisenaire rods are mathematics learning aids for pupils that provide an interactive, hands-on [1] way to explore mathematics and learn mathematical concepts, such as the four basic arithmetical operations, working with fractions and finding divisors. [2][3] In the early 1950s, Caleb Gattegno popularised this set of coloured number rods created ...
