    Place value blocks can be used to teach many math concepts. They can represent numbers and be used for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Teachers can create lesson plans around place value blocks that have students work individually or in groups to physically represent math problems and find solutions. For example, a 3rd grade teacher used place value blocks to demonstrate 253 + 512 by having students separately represent the numbers with blocks and then join the blocks to find the sum. Place value blocks make abstract math concepts more concrete by allowing students to physically interact with and manipulate the blocks.

    Task 2: Classroom manipulatives

    Mathematical Resources

    Mathematics Skill / Concept that can be developed with it.

    found in the classroom:

    circular solids

    Counting and calculating for solving a math questions for kids such as
    addition and subtraction operations.
    Comparing more than/ less than/ equal

    Abacus (place value)

    Counting, calculating including more/less than, addition, subtraction


    Comparing between numbers in each column
    Use it for addition and subtraction processes.
    Use it to teach how to write a big numbers like 3478.
    Teach name of each column (ones, tens etc)

    (place value blocks, units,

    Place value cubes it could teach the students the concept of numbers and

    for ones, tens, hundreds)

    each place value digit such as ones, tens, hundreds, thousandsetc.


    This tool is the most one is used in math classes, because it clarifies
    different operations it can be used for addition concept, subtraction,
    multiplication, division and also for comparing numbers.
    The educator interested to write a special lesson plan for activities that
    include this tool, because it has unlimited range of ideas to implement it
    in math lessons for basics instillation for young students.

    Place value cubes tool is very useful as the teacher is motivated when she
    used it. Moreover, she divided the classroom into groups and provided
    each one with this material depend on her objectives.
    For instance, the teacher in grade four used this material in multiplication
    lesson and she made groups of three students to all of them be
    contributed. And then she gave them firstly an example on the board after
    that she distribute a worksheet that has multiplication problem and the she
    gave them the materials to represent the problem and find the products.

    Another example for grade 3, the teacher used this tool for addition with
    carrying, so she wrote on the board 253 + 512 = ? Then she asked 3
    students to present the first number by using the place value cubes then
    ask another 3 students to come and present the second number. After that
    she started adding ones with ones and ask students who has the ones
    cubes to come and join together and then she completed for the rest until
    they get the sum. As you can see here how did it go:

    As well the teacher prefers to use it in the half time of her lessons in
    several ways once in group, individually or for whole class. Because she
    believes that this tool is really effective and it is helpful to deliver the
    concept in right way, just because the students touch, see, apply, try on it.
    Thus, they have perfect opportunities to analyze, evaluate, and explore
    then comprehend the concept of math.
