Hands-on manipulatives are the physical materials used for the hands-on activities that are carried out at strategic points throughout the unit. There are two types of physical manipulatives: non-consumables and consumables. Non-consumables are durable and, if cared for properly, can be used over the course of several years (e.g. magnets, stopwatches, graduated cylinders). Consumables are used up with each use and must be replenished. Refill kits of consumable materials may be purchased through Amplify.
