This collection of on-screen math manipulatives is part of an extensive collection developed at Utah State University with funding from the National Science Foundation. Students can build an understanding of math concepts by moving and arranging the components on the screen. These exercises help middle school students with factors, fractions, and other number and operations concepts. Be sure to check out interactives before assigning to students, some require an additional download.
