Manipulatives Work!
Moch, Peggy L.
Educational Forum, v66 n1 p81-87 Fall 2001
Fifth graders (n=16) engaged in manipulative activities to improve their grasp of math concepts; one-third were identified as exceptional children. Posttest results after 12 lessons showed the overall class average increased from 49% to 59% and all areas improved compared to pretest scores. Attitude changes were also apparent.
