Tips: This Learning Box activity is flash based…I’m hoping that someone comes out with an app of manipulatives for the iPad (hint, hint). Here is over 25 hours for the same money. Students can take turns at the board solving the problem and “phone a friend” if they need some additional support. You can watch them for 15 per lesson ( a whopping 70 off) or get the whole course for a one time payment of 250.00 (a whopping 80 off) which was the cost of a math camp where you only got 10 hours. Start a whole-class game with the Learning Box Base 10 blocks using a projector-connected computer or interactive whiteboard. Students can use the digital manipulatives with the built in game or to help them represent real-world problems. Learning Box Base 10 would make a great center activity in the one or two computer classroom. You can adjust the level of difficulty and place values practiced by clicking on the 1, 10, and 100 circle to the left of the paper. When students get the target number, they don’t start with a blank slate, instead a new target number is given and students have to figure out which blocks to add or subtract. I like the way the slider and cups on the bottom of the page help track student progress as they drag blocks to the paper. system of words is embodied by a set of base-ten blocks (Dienes, 1960), and the positional base-ten written marks are embodied by digit cards (numerals written on small individual cards). They help students visually represent numbers and place value.
BASE 10 BLOCKS HOW TO
How to integrate Learning Box Base 10 into the classroom: The Learning Box Base 10 blocks are a great example of a virtual manipulative. While I understand the value of the physical blocks, the digital version is a fantastic alternative for classrooms without the budget for each student to have a set or for students to continue practice at home.
The outcome of my shopping trip for base 10 blocks: the digital version is MUCH cheaper (read:free) than the physical version (not free). These worksheets only use 'tens' and 'ones' (no hundreds or thousands). This is a great way for students to digitally practice place value, counting by hundreds, tens and ones. Our first grade base ten blocks worksheets help students understand the base 10 number system by composing and de-composing numbers into their base 10 components. As students add blocks, a counter at the bottom of the page shows how many blocks are currently on the paper. Students are given a target number and drag base 10 blocks onto the paper to represent that number.
What a happy accident! Learning Box has a virtual version of base 10 blocks that builds in a fun practice game. What it is: Today while I was doing a quick Google search for a place I could buy a set of base 10 blocks, I came across this AWESOME digital version by accident.
