[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It works for some kids, and is an abysmal failure for many others, who need the concrete before the abstract. [/quote] That is the entire point. They now utilize TONS of manipulatives in most of the math curricula, all the way through 6th grade. Hopefully this child had some discs or unit/tens blocks on hand to work out this problem concretely. [/quote]
