The Hundreds Board and Manipulatives kit includes both a Number Board and a Grid Board, along with two sets of manipulatives – numbers and shapes. The numbers (1-100) appear on white squares with both black print and UEB braille characters. The design is usable for both print and braille users, making it suitable for all classrooms! The shapes (red circles, blue squares, green triangles, and yellow stars) can be used for a variety of activities.
Number Board. This yellow board has a raised black-line grid with ten squares going across and ten squares going down. The squares on the grid are numbered across 1 through 100 in black and in UEB braille code. This board can be used as a handy reference to check work done on the Grid Board.
Grid Board. This board is gray with a similar raised black-line grid. There are no numbers on the grid. The other side of the board is blank.
Manipulatives. For convenient storage and transport, manipulatives come in plastic, self-sealing bags—one for the numbers and one for each of the four shapes.
a. Numbers. Numbers can be used to replicate the Number Board or for various activities involving the manipulation of numbers on the Grid Board. Numbers can also be attached to a long strip of loop material to form a number line. The upper right corners are cut at an angle to aid in orientation.
b. Shapes. Shapes can be used for a variety of activities including patterning, replacing or marking certain numbers, or representing specific items on a graph. There are 100 of each of four different shapes in four distinct colors.
