Teachables Base Ten MAB Flats - Plastic, Blue, Set of 10

Introduce students to the world of place value with the Base Ten MAB Flats in blue. These tactile 10 x 10 x 1 cm flats provide a hands-on way to grasp the concept of place value and work with larger numbers. Perfect for visualising numbers up to the thousands, these Flats make abstract maths concepts easier to understand. Pair them with other place value resources, like dice or arrows, to expand learning opportunities. While they don't link together, their clear demarcation in centimetre squares highlights the relationship between units and wholes.
