SEE THE PLACE VALUE
Why Choose Colour-Coded MAB Blocks?
Colour gives children another visual clue when learning the Base Ten number system. Instead of relying only on the size and shape of each piece, children can also associate each colour with a particular place value.
This can make it easier to describe, sort and compare ones, tens, hundreds and thousands during hands-on maths activities.
🔢 Build Place Value Understanding
Children can physically build numbers using the different Base Ten pieces, compare quantities and see how smaller units combine to create larger place values.
✓ Ones ✓ Tens ✓ Hundreds ✓ Thousands ✓ Base Ten ✓ Place Value

Add Matching Place Value Resources
