Virtual Manipulatives Computer Center

Ivm13 have tons of websites that I love to use for math, but my go-to website is called Virtual Manipulatives. It is sponsored by Utah State University and it shows so many concepts in so many great ways.


Here are the three sections that I use the most, but there is so much more to this website than even this.

Base Block Subtraction – Drag the red blocks to the blue blocks to make them disappear. When you don’t have enough ones, drag a ten’s block to the one’s section and watch it separate!

Comparing FractionsSee equivalent fractions side by side, play with denominators, just overall a great visual for this concept.




vm44
Analog and Digital Clocks – Make the digital clock match the analog clock. Simple and easy, view both side by side, great visual for students.

For more websites to use in your computer center, check out Raki’s Rad Resources’ Weekly Website Suggestion.
