About Manipulatives: Hands-On Math
When a math idea doesn’t click, show it a different way. Move fraction tiles, slide rekenrek beads, build with base-ten bars, all on the iPhone or iPad you already own. Five tools are free; Manipulatives Pro unlocks all 18. BRING YOUR OWN LESSON Built for parents, homeschool families, teachers and educators, Manipulatives fits into the way you already teach. Model a homework problem, demonstrate an idea to your class, or let a child explore at their own pace. There is no required curriculum, scoring system or distracting game loop. FIVE TOOLS INCLUDED FREE - Math Bars: build and compare quantities; model addition and subtraction. - Ten Frames: arrange counters, recognize quantities and make ten. - Hundred Chart: mark numbers and explore skip-counting patterns. - Dice Roller: roll, count and explore probability. - Clock: move the hands and connect analog and digital time. EXPLORE MORE WITH MANIPULATIVES PRO Unlock the other 13 tools to complete your teaching shelf: - Rekenrek: slide beads to explore groups of five and ten. - Linking Cubes: connect cubes to build and compare quantities. - Two-Color Counters: sort, count and show parts of a whole. - Number Line: place numbers and explore jumps along a line. - Fraction Tiles: compare fractions using tiles and circles. - Pattern Blocks: combine shapes and explore patterns. - Geoboard: stretch bands around pegs to build shapes. - Tangram Canvas: move and rotate pieces to explore geometry. - Shape Builder: construct shapes with rods and connectors. - Money Counting: arrange coins and bills to explore value. - Probability Spinner: change sections and explore chance. - Thermometer: explore temperature and compare scales. - Sketch Pad: draw a model or work through an idea.
