Base ten blocks are a mathematical manipulative used by students to learn basic mathematical concepts including addition, subtraction, number sense, place value and counting. They are an excellent tool for teaching children these concepts because they allow children to touch and manipulate objects to develop understanding. Physically manipulating objects is an important technique used in learning basic mathematic principles, particularly at the early stages of cognitive development.
Base ten blocks turn the base ten concept into something children can see and touch.
Flats represent the hundreds place.
Teaching Ideas:
